Ninja Foodi chicken broth is easy to make with leftover bones and a few fresh vegetables. 

Making homemade chicken stock in the Ninja Foodi electric pressure cooker allows you to make delicious stock in a short cook time. It’s one of my easiest Ninja Foodi recipes.

Ninja Foodi chicken bone broth is a flavorful homemade broth that can be used in so many other delicious recipes. You can sip on this delicious stock and enjoy it as is, or add shredded chicken and make a batch of hearty soup. The possibilities are endless. 

Ninja Foodi bone broth cooks quickly under high pressure, whereas the traditional method of simmering homemade chicken broth on the stovetop can take up to 24 hours. 

What You Need to Make Ninja Foodi Chicken Bone Broth

To make this easy Foodi broth recipe you will need leftover chicken with bones and a few vegetables. 

• ​leftover chicken carcass 
• 2 large or 3 small carrots
• 2 celery stalks
• 1 small onion
• 2 parsnips
• 1 bay leaf
• 2 Tbsp apple cider vinegar
• filtered water

There is a bit of flexibility when it comes to the chicken. You can use a rotisserie chicken carcass or a homemade roasted chicken. We roasted a whole chicken the night before, and when dinner was over I placed the carcass and any leftover bones into a large Ziploc bag in the refrigerator to use the next day.

You can get your poultry at the local grocery store or order online and get organic free-range chickens from regenerative farmers. This is where I order meat from here: CrowdCow.

You will also need a Ninja Foodi. We have this Ninja Foodi, and love it! The Ninja Foodi can be found online here: Ninja Foodi. You can also find different models and sizes of the Foodi with different capabilities online here: Ninja.

Whether you’re a seasoned chef or a complete novice, the Ninja Foodi is an essential tool for anyone who wants to whip up something tasty in a hurry. It is a pressure cooker, slow cooker, air fryer, all in one countertop appliance.

Because we are making pressure cooker chicken stock you can adapt this Ninja Foodi chicken broth recipe to an Instant Pot chicken stock recipe by following the same steps.

How to Make Chicken Bone Broth in the Ninja Foodi

To make easy homemade broth, first roughly chop the vegetables into large chunks. 

Then place the leftover carcass, bones, and any chicken pieces like gizzards, organs, etc in the Ninja Foodi pot.  

Next, add the vegetables to the pot. Add the bay leaf, and apple cider vinegar as well. 

Then fill the Ninja Foodi pot with about 12 cups of water. I prefer filtered water, and love the Clearly Filtered water pitcher. Make sure not to fill beyond the MAX fill line. 

How Long to Pressure Cook Chicken Broth in Ninja Foodi

Now that your ingredients are all in the Foodi pot, secure the pressure cooking lid.

Next, set the release valve to the ‘seal’ position.

Then select pressure function, and make sure the temp is set to ‘HI’. 

Next, set the pressure cooking time to 3 hours 30 minutes. Press start.

Once the Foodi reaches pressure the timer will start to count down. Keep in mind that it can take anywhere from 10-30 minutes for the Foodi to reach pressure before it counts down.

Pressure Cooker Chicken Pressure Release

When the Ninja Foodi pressure cooker bone broth is done it will automically begin a natural pressure release. I don’t have the patience for that so I almost always switch the release valve to quick release.

If you also choose to skip the natural release and go straight to quick release then carefully switch the valve from seal to vent. Hot steam will begin to release from the valve. Be very careful not to get burned.

The red pressure button will let you know if the Ninja Foodi is still under high pressure. 

When the remaining pressure drops down to a low pressure and it’s safe to open the red button will drop. Do not attempt to force open the pressure cooker lid when the Ninja Foodi is under pressure. The locking system is a safety feature. 

Once safe, remove the pressure lid. 

Strain Pressure Cooker Chicken Broth 

Use a slotted spoon to remove the large chunks from the pot. If using a metal spoon be careful not to scratch the pot.

Remove the vegetable scraps, bones, bay leaves, organs, and connective tissues, and chicken fat. Transfer to a large bowl and discard. 

Next, use a fine mesh strainer to finish straining the last of the homemade stock. 

Ninja Foodi Chicken Broth Recipe 

Transfer the poultry broth to an airtight container, mason jars, or other glass containers with sealing lids. 

This easy Ninja Foodi chicken broth recipe is a game changer. It has so much flavor and is the perfect base for any chicken soup recipe. 

If this is your first time making chicken bone broth in the Ninja Foodi then you will love that you can make such a wonderful recipe in a fraction of the time. 

One thing to note about this homemade chicken stock recipe is that I do not add black pepper or sea salt during the pressure cooking process. The reason for this is that I would prefer to add it during the actual recipe later on for whatever I use the bone broth for, and whatever that recipe calls for. I hope that makes sense. 

Can You Freeze Homemade Chicken Bone Broth

Yes. You absolutely can.

As mentioned, you can store the homemade chicken stock in mason jars for future use. If you need to save the bone broth for a long time and prefer to freeze it then consider these Anchor Hocking TruSeal glass food storage containers with airtight lids.

I love these for freezing homemade bone broth in small 1-2 cup portions so that they are easy to grab and thaw as needed. You can find them online here: Glass Storage containers.
