There is no written recipe for this dish, as it is just one I make often. I wrote it down for the first time tonight so I could share it with you. This is a light, fresh and delicious chicken and vegetable stew made with boneless chicken thighs and chunky cut fresh vegetables from the garden, slow cooked to perfection. Good and good for you, too! Enjoy! The photo is my own, and so is this humble recipe.
