What’s Cookin? Tuesdays Are Stews Days- Hunter’s Stew

Why Stews Days on Tuesdays? No reason, other than because it rhymes. Every Tuesday, look for a new stew recipe. Same place, same time.

What is it about a hearty stew that makes you feel better, especially on a cold day? For me, it’s a comfort food memory from when I was little. What about for you?

Oh, and enjoy!

Ingredients:

  • 4 chicken leg quarters, about 3 pounds
  • salt and pepper
  • dried leaf thyme
  • 1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil or canola
  • 1/4 cup chopped onion
  • 8 ounces sliced mushrooms
  • 1 clove garlic, minced
  • 1/3 cup dry white wine
  • 1 can (14.5 ounces) diced tomatoes
  • 1 cup chicken broth
  • 3 tablespoons finely chopped fresh parsley

Preparation:

Wash chicken and pat dry. Sprinkle with salt, pepper, and thyme.

Heat the oil in a large skillet. Add the chicken and cook, turning, to brown on all sides. Remove the chicken from the pan and set aside.

Leave about 1 tablespoon of the oil in the skillet and add the onion and mushrooms. Saute, stirring, until mushrooms are tender. Add the garlic and saute for 1 minute longer. Add the wine and bring to a simmer. Simmer until tender. Add the tomatoes and chicken broth, then return the chicken to the pan. Cover and simmer for 15 minutes. Remove the cover and continue cooking for 5 to 10 minutes longer. Arrange the chicken on a platter, sprinkle with the chopped parsley, and serve with oven roasted or baked potatoes or noodles.

Hunter’s chicken recipe serves 4.
