Chicken stew and rice

in Home cooking

“How about chicken stew for dinner?” Jac asked me.
“Yes please!” I replied. “Chicken stew for dinner ANY TIME!”

She served the stew in a big bowl over rice. I took my first mouthful. YUM!
“Mmmmm! How did you cook this rice?” I asked.
“I used half water, half chicken stew juice,” she said, beaming.
With a generous amount stew on top and drowned in gravy, the rice looked mushy like baby food but boy was it tasty! I love everything about this stew but as always, the highlight for me was the tender, sweet carrots. And Jac put corn in it! She knows how much I love corn. :D

I packed more stew and rice for my lunch the next day. All morning I looked forward to lunch and couldn’t wait to eat my stew and rice.

Reading this post made me totally smile, because its so sweet how happy you are about food you realy like. :D

A few weeks ago, you had a recipe for Pizzabread with garlic – I planned on making pasta that evening, so I added that, and had a very very happy boyfriend afterwards. Would you say “Thank you” to Jac from me? :)

Yep, 1/2 water and 1/2 broth is the way to go. Looks hearty and satisfying. :-)

Mmm.. that looks great! I love pouring a soupy-stewy thing over rice and letting it get almost mushy.
