CHICKEN STEW

Yes, chicken, not beef. Diet, remember?

Chicken broth

Mixed stew vegetables

Onion

Salt and pepper to taste

 

Cook chicken in the broth, add vegetables and cook until chicken is done.   OR: Add pre-cooked chicken into the broth with the vegetables. Cook until all vegetables are cooked.  That’s all to this recipe.
