The main ingredients for this stew is chicken, carrots, onions, and potatoes. Very simple. You just need time. The stew has to simmer for good 45 minutes all together. But I promise it will be worth it. It’s very thick and just warms you up from inside out. All you need is some crusty bread to dip into all those juices and you’re set!
