Deboning Chicken

How to debone chicken.

Lately I have been buying whole chicken. I am doing this for a number of reasons. First, it’s cheaper. Buying a whole chicken is less expensive per pound than buying skinned and boned chicken. Second, it makes cooking time faster. Whether you are putting it on the grill or in the oven, chicken cooks faster when most of the bones are removed. This makes cooking dinner a lot quicker. Finally, I use the bones to make chicken stock. I love having homemade chicken stock on hand, in the freezer, to use to make soups or sauces. You could ask your butcher to debone the chicken for you. But, you would be surprised at how easy it is to do. It only takes a few minutes to accomplish. I made a short video with instructions on deboning a chicken. Here it is:

    I would love to see the video but it doesn’t work in my screen. I thought the easiest way to debone chicken was after it was cooked.

    Helpful advice thanks. If I cook it in the slow cooker it falls off the bones and save me all the work.
