Easy No Fuss Chicken Stew

Easy No fuss Kenyan Chicken Stew

If there dishes I RARELY cook it must be straight forward stews. You know like the ones you eat at every Kenyan wedding and find in most homes. I don’t know why, I like to add excitement to my dishes, I love to try something new every other time, add a new spice, try some new cuisine just anything away from the ordinary, But once in a while I feel like eating something simple and different and more Kenyan. That’s when I make this dish.

It very simple and you can use this as a base recipe and add anything you like. You can add curry powder, garam masala, chicken masala, peas, potatoes,  ANYTHING you like. HAPPY COOKING!!!
