Chicken Brunswick Stew

I like my Brunswick stew a little spicier than this. For my tastes, this is an excellent chicken stew. The flavors are fresh and work well together. Add a little Worcestershire sauce for a spicy flavor. For a more traditional Brunswick stew recipe, see the link at the bottom of the page.

Chicken Brunswick Stew Recipe

1 chicken, cut up
1 quart corn
1 quart tomatoes
1 pint okra
1 pint butter beans or lima beans
2 onions
Salt and pepper to taste

1. Boil the chicken, covered in water, until very tender and falling from bones.
2. Pull the meat from the bones and cut into cubes.  Return the chicken pieces to the broth in which it was cooked.
3. Add vegetables and cook until the vegetables are done.  Cook slowly, stirring often to prevent scorching.
4. Bread crumbs may be added if needed to thicken.
5. I like to add a dash of Worcestershire sauce, but it is not part of this original recipe.
