This nutrient-rich Keto Instant Pot Chicken Feet Broth is perfect for sipping or as a base for hearty soups, delivering all the benefits of collagen without the carbs.
Prepare the chicken feet by ensuring they are thoroughly cleaned and the nails are trimmed.
Place the chicken feet into the Instant Pot.
Add the quartered onion, chopped celery, carrots, smashed garlic, bay leaves, and whole black peppercorns to the pot.
Pour in the apple cider vinegar and water, ensuring the contents are submerged but do not exceed the max fill line of the Instant Pot.
Secure the lid of the Instant Pot and set the valve to the sealing position.
Select the "Soup/Broth" setting and adjust the time to 90 minutes at high pressure.
Once the cooking cycle is complete, allow the pressure to naturally release for 20 minutes, then carefully switch the valve to venting to release any remaining pressure.
Strain the broth through a fine-mesh sieve into a large bowl or container, discarding the solids.
Season the broth with salt to taste, then let it cool before transferring to jars or containers for storage.
Notes
The collagen from chicken feet can solidify when cold, forming a gel-like consistency which is normal.For a clearer broth, blanch the chicken feet first by boiling them for 5 minutes and rinsing before placing in the Instant Pot.This broth can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 5 days or frozen for up to 3 months.
