Are you thinking of preparing a quick dinner tonight? Then the mighty chicken stew is your answer.

Rich and creamy, yet quick to make. A perfect not so heavy meal especially, during cold weather. Enjoy them as it is or with bread or buns.

Ingredients for 1 big Bowl of stew

Preparation Time: 10 minutes & Cooking Time: 20 Minutes

1/2 cup diced potato

1/2 cup diced carrot

1/4 cup chopped chicken breast (I prefer boneless)

1/4 cup chopped onion

1 teaspoon crushed ginger

1 cup coconut milk or full-fat milk

1 tablespoon cooking oil

1 teaspoon salt (adjust to your taste)

Optional

2 green chili ( if you like to spice up)

Preparation

  1. Cook diced potato, diced carrot, chopped chicken, chopped onion together with salt in a pressure cooker (if you have at home), or in a normal pot with enough water. 1 pressure is enough if you are cooking in a pressure cooker and let is rest and settle the air.
  2. Open the pressure cooker or pot, stir in green chilies and ginger.
  3. Let the stew boil in low-medium heat.
  4. Add coconut milk or full-fat milk when the stew starts thickening. Adjust the consistency to your liking by adding little water if the stew is too thick.
  5. Add oil to the stew.
  6. Remove the cooker or pot from the stove and let it rest for 5 minutes before serving.

Notes

  • You may use cooking cream instead of coconut milk for a different taste.
  • Coconut oil is a good substitute instead of cooking oil.
  • You may garnish the stew with Basil leaves, lime zest, or lime leaves.
