The stew was too thick for my liking. I would have preferred it to be a bit thinner.

This stew was a bit bland for my taste. I think it needed more salt and pepper. Otherwise, it was a good stew.

I've made this stew several times now, and it's always a hit. It's a great way to use up leftover chicken, and the vegetables add a nice touch of flavor. I usually serve it with rice or mashed potatoes.
