 --------  ------------  --------------------------------
   11      pounds        whole chickens -- about 4 chickens OR
   12                    boneless chicken breasts -- approx
    4      quarts        cold water
    3      tablespoons   dried parsley flakes
    4                    carrots -- peeled and chopped
    4      teaspoons     salt

 If using whole chickens, cut into quarters of pieces.
 
 Combine all ingredients in a large pot or Dutch oven.  Cover and cook over 
 high heat until water boils.  Simmer until chicken is tender, about 1 1/2 h

 Cool chicken, remove and discard bones and skin.  Dice or shred meat and di

 of each container.  Secure lids on containers; label each with date and con
 tents.  Freeze.  Use within 3 months.
 
 Pour skimmed chicken broth into six more 1-pint containers, leaving 1/2″ ai
 r space at the top of each container.  Secure lids on containers; label eac
 h with date and contents.  Freeze.  Use with 3 months.
