Zesty chicken and vegetable stew

Background
This zesty chicken and vegetable stew is ideal on cool evenings during early Spring. Itβs zingy and refreshing reminding us that proper Spring is around the corner . You can use different veggies, such as spinach, kale, baby carrots etc. I used mushroom, green peas and beans. Serve it with boiled potatoes or steamed rice.
