Tips:
- For a vegetarian version of the stew, replace the chicken with chickpeas or tofu.
- To make a thicker stew, add a cornstarch slurry made with equal parts cornstarch and water. Stir it into the stew until it reaches the desired consistency.
- If you don't have a Dutch oven, you can use a large pot or skillet. Just be sure that it has a tight-fitting lid.
