Brunswick Stew Ingredients

Method

Brunswick Stew Directions

  1. 1

    Cook the Chicken

    In a large pot, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add the whole chicken and brown on all sides for about 10 minutes. Remove the chicken and set aside.

  2. 2

    Sauté Vegetables

    In the same pot, add chopped onion and minced garlic. Sauté until the onion is translucent, about 5 minutes.

  3. 3

    Combine Ingredients

    Return the chicken to the pot. Add chicken broth, diced tomatoes, corn, butter beans, diced potatoes, Worcestershire sauce, salt, black pepper, bay leaves, and thyme.

  4. 4

    Simmer the Stew

    Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce heat to low. Cover and let simmer for about 1.5 hours, or until the chicken is fully cooked and tender.

  5. 5

    Shred the Chicken

    Remove the chicken from the pot, shred the meat, and return it to the stew.

  6. 6

    Serve

    Remove bay leaves before serving. Serve hot and enjoy your Brunswick stew!
