How To Boil Chicken Legs

Found mistake?

In large pot add chicken legs, roughly chopped carrots and ½ of onion, bay leaves and salt.
Pour enough water to fully cover the chicken.
Place the pot on the stove over medium-high heat and bring it to a gentle boil.
Reduce the heat to low-medium and let the chicken boil covered for about 20-35 minutes.
The meat is cooked when the juices run clear and the internal temperature reaches 165°F.
Turn off the heat and let the chicken legs sit in hot broth for about 10 minutes to absorb even more flavor.
Using tongs, remove the legs from hot broth and serve as main dish or use for other recipes.
You can strain the broth and store it in the fridge for up to 3 days to make some soup.
