What is "chicken stew"?
Chicken stew is a hearty and comforting dish made with chicken meat, vegetables, herbs, and a savory broth. The chicken is typically first browned in oil or butter to add flavor and color, and then simmered with vegetables such as carrots, celery, onions, and potatoes. Other ingredients like mushrooms, peas, and corn may also be added for extra flavor and nutrition. The stew is then seasoned with herbs like thyme, rosemary, or bay leaves, and simmered for a long time until the chicken is tender and falls off the bone. The resulting dish is warm, filling, and perfect for cold winter nights or anytime a comforting meal is needed. It can be served on its own or with bread, rice, or noodles.
