I got this recipe from my friend Shelly. I made a few modifications for my family and now it's one of our favorite dinners. It is very low point friendly (if you're on Weight Watchers) and high in taste. We have enjoyed it year round.

Time 40m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

  • Saute chicken, onion, garlic, and green pepper in cooking spray.
  • Add remaining ingredients. Heat on stove until warm throughout.
  • (You can also cook this in the crockpot on low all day or high for a few hours--no need to saute veggies for the crockpot version.)
  • If desired, top stew with shredded cheese, sour cream, avocados, and crushed up tortilla chips. My kids love to eat this as a dip for their chips. I serve it with the baked version of tortilla chips.

Tips:

  • Choose the Right Chicken: Opt for boneless, skinless chicken breasts or thighs for a leaner stew. If using bone-in chicken, increase the cooking time accordingly.
  • Sear the Chicken: Searing the chicken before stewing adds flavor and helps it retain its moisture. Make sure the chicken is browned on all sides.
  • Use a Variety of Vegetables: Don't limit yourself to just one type of vegetable. Incorporate a mix of veggies like bell peppers, carrots, celery, corn, and zucchini for a colorful and flavorful stew.
  • Add Spices and Seasonings: Don't be afraid to experiment with different spices and seasonings to create a unique flavor profile. Chili powder, cumin, garlic, paprika, oregano, and bay leaves are all popular choices.
  • Use a Good Quality Broth: The broth is the base of the stew, so make sure you use a good quality one. You can use chicken broth, vegetable broth, or a combination of both.
  • Simmer for Flavor: Let the stew simmer for at least 30 minutes, or longer if you have time. This allows the flavors to meld and deepen.
  • Serve with Toppings: When serving, top the stew with your favorite toppings such as sour cream, shredded cheese, chopped cilantro, or crushed tortilla chips.

Conclusion:

Chili chicken stew is a hearty, flavorful dish that is perfect for a cold winter day. With its tender chicken, colorful vegetables, and rich broth, it's a meal that the whole family will enjoy. So next time you're looking for a comforting and satisfying stew, give this chili chicken stew a try!
