Sea salt can enhance flavor without adding calories.

Combine chicken, green onion, ginger, garlic, onion, celery, rosemary, thyme, bell peppers, carrots, parsley, basil, and bay leaves in a large pot.

Season with salt and black pepper.

Add cooking oil as needed.

Add water to cover the ingredients completely.

Bring to a boil over high heat, then reduce to a simmer.

Simmer for 2-3 hours, skimming foam from the surface as needed.

Remove from heat and let cool slightly.

Strain the mixture through a fine-mesh sieve into a bowl, discarding solids.

Pour the strained liquid into ice cube trays or silicone molds.

Freeze until solid, then transfer cubes to a freezer bag for storage.

Label the bag with the date and use within 6 months.
