Preparation
Step 1
Preheat the oven to 450°F. Arrange the chicken pieces in a single layer in a large roasting pan. Roast, turning once halfway through, until skins are golden brown and crisp, about 1 1/2 hours. Add the onions, carrots, celery, and garlic; roast 30 minutes more. Transfer to a large stockpot; set aside.
Step 2
Pour 1 cup water into the roasting pan; bring to a boil over high heat. Deglaze the pan, scraping up the browned bits from the bottom with a wooden spoon; pour the liquid into the pot. Add the bay leaves, peppercorns, parsley, and 3 1/2 quarts water; bring to a boil over high heat, skimming foam from surface. Reduce heat; simmer 3 hours.
Step 3
Remove the solids from the stock; discard. Strain the stock through a fine sieve into a large bowl. Let cool completely. Cover with plastic wrap; refrigerate until the fat has risen to surface. Skim off fat before using.
