Homemade Chicken Stew Recipes

Steps:

• Heat olive oil in a large soup pot over medium to medium-high heat. Saute onion, carrots, and celery until they begin to become tender and caramelize, about 10 minutes. Add garlic and saute for 1 minute. Season vegetables with a generous sprinkling of salt and pepper while cooking.
• Stir in butter to melt; stir flour into the veggies and butter until evenly distributed and veggies are coated. Pour in broth and milk, stirring until well combined. Turn the heat up and bring the mixture to a simmer. Add thyme, salt, pepper, and turmeric. Stir in peas and corn. Stir in chicken to combine and allow to simmer, 10 to 15 minutes. Taste and adjust seasonings before serving.

Steps:

• Heat oil in large pot, saute onions for 2 minutes.
• Add next 7 ingredients.
• Bring to a boil.
• Add potatoes, carrots, and chicken.
• Simmer until vegetables are done, about 30 minutes.
• Thicken with cornstarch if you like a thicker stew.

Steps:

• Heat the oil in a heavy 5 1/2-quart saucepan over medium heat. Add the celery, carrot, and onion. Saute the vegetables until the onion is translucent, about 5 minutes. Season with salt and pepper, to taste. Stir in the tomatoes with their juices, chicken broth, basil, tomato paste, bay leaf, and thyme. Add the chicken breasts; press to submerge.
• Bring the cooking liquid to a simmer. Reduce the heat to medium-low and simmer gently uncovered until the chicken is almost cooked through, turning the chicken breasts over and stirring the mixture occasionally, about 25 minutes. Using tongs, transfer the chicken breasts to a work surface and cool for 5 minutes. Discard the bay leaf. Add the kidney beans to the pot and simmer until the liquid has reduced into a stew consistency, about 10 minutes.
• Discard the skin and bones from the chicken breasts. Shred or cut the chicken into bite- size pieces. Return the chicken meat to the stew. Bring the stew just to a simmer. Season with salt and pepper, to taste.
• Ladle the stew into serving bowls and serve with the bread.
• Serving suggestion: crusty bread.

Steps:

• Microwave potatoes and water in covered microwaveable dish on HIGH 7 min. or until potatoes are tender.
• Meanwhile, heat oil in large saucepan on medium-high heat. Add chicken; cook 7 min. or until evenly browned, stirring occasionally.
• Add potatoes, soup, dressing and frozen vegetables to chicken in saucepan; stir. Bring to boil; cover. Simmer on medium-low heat 3 min. or until chicken is done and vegetables are heated through.
• Stir in sour cream; cook 1 min. or until heated through, stirring occasionally.

Steps:

• In a large dutch oven or stock pot, add onion, celery, carrots, garlic and bay leaf. Place chicken on top, and add water. (If your pot will only hold 10 cups of water at first, the remaining water can be added later, as some of it will evaporate.) Cover and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low, and simmer for 1-1/2 hours.
• Using a slotted spoon, remove chicken to a plate to cool. Strain the broth, and discard the vegetables.
• At this point, the broth may be cooled and frozen for later use, or you may continue on with the recipe. This is an excellent time to remove any remaining fat from the broth.
• Remove the meat from the bones, cut and set aside.
• Return the broth to a clean pot. Bring to a boil and add the potatoes, carrots, celery, onion, garlic, salt and pepper. Cover and simmer for 1/2 hour.
• Add the chicken, bouillon, frozen vegetables, and noodles. Simmer for 20 minutes.

Steps:

• Heat the oil in your largest pan - an extra-large wok with a lid is ideal. Fry the onion and garlic for a few mins until soft, then pour in the stock and stir in the potato and herbs.
• Add the chicken and bring to the boil. Stir in the carrots, parsnips and leeks, then cover the pan and leave to simmer on a low heat for 40-45 mins, stirring every now and then, until the chicken is tender. (Cool and freeze any extra portions, and use within 2 months - thaw at room temperature, then reheat in a pan until bubbling.) Serve with mash and peas, if you like.
