What do you mean by "air-chilled" chicken?

Let the chicken cool, uncovered, in the fridge, so the skin of the bird dries out.

I did it! And it was easy. First time I ever broke down a chicken. Now on to the stock.

What do you mean by unpeeled? Do you mean don't peel them?

yup! just leave the skins right on there. This will give you a darker stock, so if you prefer one that's clearer/lighter in color, feel free to peel them.

also forgot to mention--onion skins are good for you! They've got anti-inflammatory properties and have been shown to prevent the arteries from clogging.

This is so helpful! The last time I broke down a chicken, I was like "this won't be so hard!" and just went at it. Yes, it was that hard. But this makes it look easy! Another win for Cara.
