One Pan Chicken Stew

Here is an easy one-pot chicken stew, can you use pork, beef, or other meat like venison? Absolutely!

This is a basic stew recipe that can be interchanged with whatever your family likes any of the vegetable suggestions and this can also be made even meatless.

A tomato sauce-based stew loaded with flavor that Grandma and Mom made all winter long with whatever fresh or canned vegetables we had on hand and available.

If you love comfort meals this will be a banquet on your table, the only thing missing in this recipe is a loaf of Homemade Italian Bread which was a must in our home.

Cooking Methods

Stovetop, oven, or slow cooker your stew will be delicious.

No matter which method you choose to make your stew just remember to brown whatever meat you're using first.

The more root vegetables you use the longer it takes and more liquid is needed so it isn't dried out.
