Background
This zesty chicken and vegetable stew is ideal on cool evenings during early Spring. It’s 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.
