3. Boil Your Chicken Briefly

Cover the soup pot with a lid and cook on high heat until the water begins to boil. Do not let the water boil continuously, as this can cause fat from the chicken to boil off and infuse your broth, making it cloudy and greasy. To ensure the fat floats to the surface of the water so you can easily remove it later, reduce the broth to low heat immediately after boiling and let the chicken and broth simmer for about an hour.
