Broth is typically made with meat and can contain a small amount of bones (think of the bones in a fresh whole chicken). Broth is typically simmered for a short period of time (45 minutes to 2 hours). It is very light in flavor, thin in texture and rich in protein.
1 Sprinkle with thyme, marjoram, and pepper. 2  Add chicken broth, cover, and cook on low for 7 to 8 hours or on high for 2 1/2 to 3 hours. 3  When done cooking, remove the chicken and discard the onion, carrot, and parsley. 4  Skim off and discard all surface fat from the broth. Add shredded chicken back to the slow cooker and bring to a simmer. 2  Lightly saute the diced onion, diced carrots, diced celery, mushroom, in a little broth or water until softened and place in the crock along with the spinach. 3  Simmer for 10 minutes. 4  Meanwhile, cook noodles according to package directions.
