CHICKEN APPLE STEW



Chicken Apple Stew image

I made this chicken stew on a cold autumn night when I had an excess of fresh apples. The apple adds a sweet, pleasant flavor which complements the root vegetables, resulting in a light, but delicious, dinner which warms you from the inside. Great with a sprinkle of Parmesan cheese and served with sourdough rolls for dipping.
