Summer Stew

Quite Delight

1 Large Onion - Chopped

½ Red Bell Pepper - Chopped

2 Cups Unsalted Chicken Broth

1 Large Can Green Chilis

1 Package Turkey Kielbasa - Sliced Into Bite-Sized Pieces

1 teaspoon Herbes de Provence

½ teaspoon Cajun Seasoning

½ teaspoon Old Bay Seasoning

2 Bay Leaves (dried)

1 Tablespoon Minced Garlic

5 Chicken Tenderloins - Cubed

2 Small Zucchini - Diced

1 - 16 oz can White Beans - Drained and Rinsed

In a large pot, saute the onion and pepper until soft. Add broth and green chilis including their juice.

Add spices and bring to a simmer.

Brown kielbasa separately, drain it, and add to stew.

Add about ¼ cup of water to the kielbasa pan and stir until the flavor from the bottom is deglazed and a flavorful sauce is formed. Add the chicken to this and stir frequently just until cooked through. Add to stew and simmer for 5 minutes.

Add the zucchini and simmer, stirring occasionally and gently, until tender.

Add beans and simmer 2 minutes until heated through.

This is complimented well by a vinegar based hot sauce like Tabasco.
