A Potjie is a South African Stew type meal cooked in a large three legged pot over coals. It is often cooked as port of a social gathering in much the same way as BBQs are. These are awesome to have while camping too.

This chicken potjie is a great way to warm up on a cold day. The chicken and vegetables are cooked in a flavorful broth, and the dumplings add a touch of heartiness. I served it with a side of crusty bread and it was the perfect meal.

This chicken potjie is a great way to use up leftover chicken. I usually make it with rotisserie chicken, but you could also use cooked chicken breasts or thighs. It's a hearty and comforting meal that's perfect for a cold night.
