Quick Chicken Stock
Homemade chicken stock traditionally takes hours of simmering on the stove. Our version unlocks that flavor in a fraction of the time, using onion powder, bay leaf, garlic, and peppercorns to add depth. Use it to uplevel rice, stews, and sauces.
All of Anyday’s recipes are tested (and retested!) in many different microwaves and home kitchens to make sure they work — and work well.

Ingredients
- 4 oz (115g) chicken bones (from raw chicken)
- 2 cups (500ml) water
- ½ teaspoon onion powder
- 1 garlic clove, peeled
- ½ bay leaf
- ¼ teaspoon whole peppercorns
- salt, to taste
Preparation
- Place all ingredients in the Anyday dish. Cook uncovered in the microwave for 7 minutes.
- Skim the top of the liquid to remove the larger impurities that float to the top (it’s okay if some smaller particles are still in the broth).
- Cover with the lid (knob lifted). Continue cooking for 5 minutes.
- Carefully strain the liquid into a large bowl.
- Use the stock right away or allow it to cool and refrigerate it for up to 5 days or in the freezer for up to 30 days.
Serving suggestions & tips
- Use turkey bones instead of chicken to make turkey stock.
- For darker stock, use the leftover bones of a rotisserie or roasted chicken. For a more gelatinous stock, add chicken skin.
- Add grated ginger, soy sauce and sesame oil for a flavor-packed stock.
- Microwave ovens vary, even with the same wattages. Adjust cooking times as needed.
