  • Use a variety of vegetables: This adds flavor, color, and nutrients to the stew. Some good choices include carrots, celery, onion, and bell peppers.
  • Cook the chicken until it is tender: This usually takes about 15-20 minutes. You can check if the chicken is done by inserting a meat thermometer into the thickest part of the breast. It should read 165 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • Don't overcook the potatoes: They should be tender but still retain their shape.
  • Season the stew to your liking: This recipe uses a combination of salt, pepper, garlic powder, and paprika. You can adjust the amounts of each spice to suit your taste.
  • Serve the stew hot: This is a hearty and comforting dish that is perfect for a cold winter day.
