Chicken Stew

October 17, 2009

My mother made this all the time when I was growing up (and, happily, still does). This chicken stew is my ultimate comfort food, and never fails to make me feel like a kid again. I also love that I can get home at 7PM and be eating this delicious meal by 7:30. Go here for a list of ingredients.

MOM’S CHICKEN STEW

1. Cut 2-3 skinless, boneless chicken breasts into pieces.

2. Brown chicken pieces in a large pot with 2 tbsp olive oil and some garlic salt.

3. Add 12 cups chicken broth (I just use 12 cups of water and 6 packets of chicken bouillon) to the pot; bring to a boil.
