Makes enough for 2 for a week of lunches. Very satisfying. Ingredients: 3 med zucchini, diced 3 med yellow squash, diced 1 med onion, diced 1 yellow bell pepper, diced 3 cloves minced garlic 5 stalks celery, diced 1 pkg crimini mushrooms, sliced 2 pkgs chicken tenders, cut into bite sized pieces Italian seasoning to taste (about 2 tbsp) Salt and pepper to taste (I am quite liberal here) 3 qts. low sodium chicken broth 1 small carton heavy cream olive oil/butter How To Prepare: Melt butter into olive oil, and saute onion, zucchini, squash, garlic, pepper, celery, and mushrooms with salt, pepper, Itialian seasoning until tender. Add broth, bring to a boil, add chicken and simmer for 35 - 45 min until chicken is cooked through and tender. Stir in heavy cream (also works well with half and half, or nothing at all) and heat gently. I also will toss a handful of fresh trimmed green beans in here, and sometimes frozen corn, if cooking for fiance (non low carb). Number of Servings: I can get about 16 servings Preparation Time: 30 min or less (chopping) Effort (Easy, Average, Difficult): Easy Source:

No | Rating: 2    Pros: Cons: I've never had chicken stew but I just made this and it is BAD.....sorry to the original poster but I don't want anyone to waste their time chopping all this stuff up.

Yes | Rating: 8    Pros: Easy, healthy, very low carb Cons: Recipe is vague on measurements I hope no one avoided this recipe because of one bad review. I found it easy to make, delicious and satisfying. There are problems with the way the recipe is written - how much chicken is "2 pkgs"??? I used 2 whole breasts (about a lb.), less zucchini and squash (only 1 each) and less broth (2 qts. is plenty). I also used a red pepper instead of yellow for its pretty color. I calculate the carbs to be about 45 gms. for the whole pot, minus about 7 gms. of fiber - outstanding!
