Like a thick, hearty soup, this stew is packed with tender chicken and an eye-catching combination of vegetables. I could never wait patiently to eat when Mother was cooking this stew. —Milded Sherrer, Fort Worth, Texas

Ingredients

  • 1 broiler/fryer chicken (3-1/2 to 4 pounds), cut up
  • 2 cups water
  • 4 medium potatoes, peeled and cubed
  • 2 medium onions, sliced
  • 1 can (15-1/4 ounces) lima beans, rinsed and drained
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon pepper
  • Dash cayenne pepper
  • 1 can (15-1/4 ounces) corn, drained
  • 1 can (14-1/2 ounces) diced tomatoes, undrained
  • 1/4 cup butter
  • 1/2 cup dry bread crumbs

Directions

  1. In a Dutch oven, slowly bring the chicken and water to a boil. Cover and simmer until chicken is tender, 45-60 minutes, skimming the surface as foam rises.
  2. Remove chicken and set aside until cool enough to handle. Remove and discard skin and bones. Cube chicken and return to broth.
  3. Add the potatoes, onions, beans and seasonings. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat; simmer, uncovered, until potatoes are tender, about 30 minutes. Stir in remaining ingredients. Simmer, uncovered, until slightly thickened, about 10 minutes.
