Ingredients
Instructions
Wash and chop all vegetables into bite-sized pieces. Trim the chicken and pat it dry to ensure better searing and flavor development during cooking.
Heat olive oil or butter in a large pot over medium heat. Add diced onion, celery, and carrots. Cook until the onions are translucent and vegetables have softened slightly. Stir in minced garlic and cook for another minute until fragrant.
Add chicken pieces to the pot and brown lightly on all sides. This step locks in flavor and helps keep the meat tender and juicy as it simmers.
Pour in chicken broth, add tomato paste, diced potatoes, fresh thyme sprigs, and bay leaves. Stir everything together and bring the mixture to a boil.
Reduce heat to low and allow the stew to simmer gently for 30 to 40 minutes, or until the chicken and potatoes are tender. Stir occasionally to prevent sticking and to allow flavors to meld wonderfully.
Remove thyme sprigs and bay leaves. Taste and adjust seasoning with salt and pepper as needed. Serve the stew piping hot for a comforting meal.
