Tomato Basil Chicken Stew

September 28, 2019 by Liza Agbanlog 1 Comment

The cold season is here and it’s the perfect time to make soups and stews like this tomato basil chicken stew. Most stews that I’ve made in the past are complete meals on their own and this recipe is no exception. It consists of shredded chicken, cannellini beans, and vegetables such as tomatoes, carrots, celery and spinach. Basil, which is one of my favorite herbs, is also used to flavor this stew. In this dish, the aromatics are sautéed first with the vegetables. Then, the rest of the ingredients are added. It is simmered briefly for 10 minutes and then served with a sprinkle of grated Parmesan cheese. The combination of tomatoes and basil makes this stew so tasty and delicious.
