One of my favorite warm and cozy dinners for this time of year! Inspired by @budgetbytes, this chicken stew is packed with tender chicken thighs, hearty vegetables, and aromatic herbs. The broth becomes rich and flavorful as it simmers, making it the perfect dish to enjoy on a chilly evening. Serve it with fresh parsley for a burst of freshness.
