Ingredients
- 1 pound chicken bones or beef bones
- 2 inch piece, sliced fresh ginger
- 5 cloves, smashed garlic
- 3 stalks, cut into 2-inch pieces green onions
- 2 whole pods star anise
- 1 whole cinnamon stick
- 4 whole cloves
- 1 tablespoon Sichuan peppercorns
- 10 cups water
- 3 tablespoons coconut aminos
- 2 tablespoons fish sauce
- 2 teaspoons sea salt
- 0.5 cup, chopped (optional for garnish) fresh cilantro
Directions
Step 1
Start by preheating your oven to 400°F (200°C). Spread the chicken or beef bones on a baking sheet and roast them for 30 minutes until they are browned. This step will enhance the flavor of your broth.
Step 2
In a large stockpot, add the roasted bones, sliced ginger, smashed garlic cloves, green onions, star anise, cinnamon stick, cloves, and Sichuan peppercorns.
Step 3
Pour in 10 cups of water and bring the mixture to a boil over high heat. Once boiling, reduce the heat to a simmer and cover the pot.
Step 4
Allow the broth to simmer for approximately 2.5 hours, skimming off any impurities that rise to the surface.
Step 5
After simmering, strain the broth through a fine-mesh sieve into another pot to remove the solid ingredients.
Step 6
Return the strained broth to the stove over low heat and stir in the coconut aminos, fish sauce, and sea salt. Adjust seasoning to your taste if necessary.
Step 7
Serve hot with your choice of paleo-friendly vegetables, meats, and garnishes like fresh cilantro.
