Chicken recipes often call for a specific part of the bird—the breast meat, for example, or the thighs. Buying all those pieces separately can get expensive. Why not save some money by buying the whole chicken and cutting it up yourself? You can get the job done in 10 minutes or less. You’ll not only have the breasts, thighs, drumsticks and wings ready to use in your next recipe, you’ll also have leftover pieces you can use to make your own chicken stock. Watch the video to see how it’s done, step by step, and get the simple list of ingredients for simmering a batch of homemade stock, too!
