Tips for Making the Best Chicken Stew

- Choose the right chicken. Bone-in, skin-on chicken thighs or breasts are best for stewing, as they will stay moist and flavorful during the long cooking time. - Browning the chicken before stewing is a great way to add flavor and color to the dish. - Use a variety of vegetables in your stew. Carrots, celery, onions, and potatoes are all classic additions, but you can also use other vegetables such as parsnips, turnips, or leeks. - Season your stew well. Salt, pepper, and garlic are all essential seasonings for chicken stew, but you can also add other herbs and spices such as thyme, rosemary, or paprika. - Simmer the stew for at least 30 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and the vegetables are tender. - Serve the stew with a side of crusty bread or rice. - Leftover stew can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days, or in the freezer for up to 3 months. ###
