1 whole chicken (5 lbs)
6 carrots, peeled
4 ribs of celery
3 medium onions
2 sprigs thyme
2 sprigs parsley
5 black peppercorns
1 tsp salt
1 tsp pepper
96 ounces low sodium chicken broth

Roughly chop 2 carrots, 2 ribs of celery and one onion. Place in large stockpot with whole chicken, thyme, parsley and peppercorns. Add chicken broth and enough water to completely cover the chicken. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer for 80 minutes, skimming the top occasionally.
Remove chicken from the pot and set aside. Remove the vegetables and herbs from the remaining broth and discard. Strain the broth in a fine strainer. Keep warm.
Chop remaining carrots, celery and onions into 1/4 inch pieces. Melt butter over low-medium heat. Add remaining vegetables and cook until onions are translucent. Stirring occasionally.
