Chicken Stew
In most cases, winters refer to a leaky nose and a sore throat, which is why we’re introducing to a dish that feels like a warm hug on a cold winter day. Chicken Stew is a nutritious and delicious meal that is packed with the goodness of chicken and veggies. It might look simple, but be warned, it is packed with subtle yet gripping flavours that will encourage you to take a second serving.
