ROSÓŁ
The health benefits of using as many bones in a soup recipe are incredible. This recipe is not only delicious, it is handed down through 3 generations of my Polish family. I used my Babci’s 3 gallon stock pot for this soup in order to freeze and save the soup for other recipes.
Using the carcass of a picked-at roasted chicken gives this nutritious soup a complex flavorful broth. Great served with Lane Kluski. Za Twoje zdrowie!

Directions
- In the bottom of a large stock pot, place the olive oil, chicken carcass, gizzards, onions and garlic and turn on medium heat to start a gently browning.
- After a few minutes of turning the chicken on all sides, add in the water.
- Bring the soup to a boil then lower the heat. Simmer on low for 2 hours. Skim off any foam that comes to the top of the pot.
- Cover and simmer a few more hours on low, then add in all the vegetables and seasonings.
- Continue simmering on low for another hour, total time should be 6-8 hours or even more if you have the time.
- Strain the broth into another pot, and pull the chicken meat off the bones placing on the side.
- In a separate pot, cook noodles or pastina of choice, or use my authentic homemade poured kluski recipe, Lane Kluski
