Creamy Chicken Stew

Perfect weeknight comfort food. Rich and creamy with tender chicken and vegetables.

Instructions

  1. 1

    Heat oil in a large pot over medium-high heat. Season chicken pieces with salt and pepper, then brown them on all sides until golden. Remove and set aside.

  2. 2

    In the same pot, sauté onion until soft and translucent, about 3-4 minutes. Add garlic and cook for another minute until fragrant.

  3. 3

    Add carrots and bell pepper, cook for 5 minutes until they start to soften. Sprinkle in flour and stir for 1 minute to cook out the raw flour taste.

  4. 4

    Gradually pour in chicken stock while stirring constantly to prevent lumps. Add the browned chicken back to the pot along with thyme and bay leaf.

  5. 5

    Bring to a gentle simmer, then reduce heat to low. Cover and let it bubble away for 20-25 minutes until chicken is tender and vegetables are cooked through.

  6. 6

    Stir in the cream and let it heat through for 2-3 minutes. Taste and adjust seasoning with salt and pepper. Remove bay leaf before serving.
