Overall, I thought this stew was just okay. It wasn't bad, but it wasn't anything special either.

The chicken in the stew was a bit dry. I think I should have cooked it for a shorter amount of time.

The stew was too thick for my liking. I added some water to it and it turned out much better.

This stew was easy to make and so flavorful! I used boneless, skinless chicken breasts and it cooked perfectly in the stew.

I'm not a big fan of stews, but this one changed my mind! The vegetables were cooked perfectly and the chicken was so juicy. I'll definitely be making this again.
