I'm a vegetarian, so I used tofu instead of chicken. It was delicious!

I didn't have any thyme or rosemary, so I used oregano and basil instead. It still turned out great!

This stew was a bit too bland for my taste. I added some extra spices and it was much better.

I made this stew in my slow cooker and it turned out perfectly. I just threw all the ingredients in the pot in the morning and dinner was ready when I got home from work.

I'm not usually a fan of chicken stew, but this recipe changed my mind. The chicken was tender and juicy, and the vegetables were perfectly cooked. I will definitely be making this again.
