How to Make Hearty Chicken and Vegetable Stew

1. Sauté the chicken: Heat olive oil in a big pot over medium heat. Add the chicken, season with salt and pepper, and cook until browned. Remove and set aside.

Cook the veggies: In the same pot, add the onions, garlic, carrots, and celery. Sauté for 3-4 minutes until soft.

Add the broth and tomatoes: Pour in the chicken broth and add the can of diced tomatoes. Toss in the potatoes, zucchini, and green beans.

Simmer it up: Bring everything to a boil, then reduce the heat to low. Cover and let it simmer for 30-40 minutes until the veggies are tender.

Add the chicken back: Stir in the cooked chicken and let it heat through for another 5-10 minutes

Garnish and serve: Sprinkle with fresh parsley and serve it up hot with crusty bread (if you’re not keto).
