:: CHICKEN AND BEAN STEW RECIPE ::
Ten minutes is all it takes to prepare this lovely Chicken and Bean Stew Recipe. I love finding quick and easy recipes when I visit Trader Joe’s. It is a great meal when you have a busy week and you don’t want to order out AGAIN! Six simple ingredients is all it takes. This stew is a little on the spicy side, but with a small change of the recipe, you can get the whole family to sit down to enjoy this meal.
This recipe is really as simple as it looks. Should Trader Joe’s not be near your home, you can change the product out for ingredients at your local grocery store.
The preparation is a simple as it looks. Slice and cook the chicken sausage.
Then pour in the remainder ingredients plus the rice. Set on high for 3 minutes and dinner is ready. Serve with tortillas or a side salad.
