Sunday Recipe Rewind: Hearty Chicken Stew
This is one of my favorite recipes. I don’t care what time
of year it is hot or cold bring on my hearty chicken stew. This was a favorite
of mine when I was a kid too. We would have it so often that finally my parents
said NO MORE they were sick of it but I sure wasn’t!
I make this as often as possible. Unlike the recipe I normally
just eye ball the veggies and the broth. I cut up enough veggies to fill up my
pot. Normally I double the potatoes and triple the carrots and just add extra
broth! I don’t even measure anymore because I have made it so often.
Originally this recipe was on a Tyson Chicken recipe card in
the grocery store butcher area when I was a kid. Thanks Tyson for making me one
happy kid!
