Ingredients
Scale
- ½ cup diced onion
- 2 tsp minced garlic
- 2 TBSP butter
- 2 cups diced potatoes
- 2 cups diced carrots
- 14 oz can chicken broth
- 1 medium zucchini diced
- 2 large tomatoes peeled and diced (or you can use 1 14-oz can diced tomatoes, not drained)
- 14 oz can corn not drained
- ½ tsp rubbed sage
- ½ tsp all-purpose seasoning
- 12 oz can evaporated milk
- 2 TBSP cornstarch
- 1 cup diced chicken or ham optional
- ½ cup Parmesan cheese to top bowls of stew with
Instructions
- Step 1: Prep: Start by preparing the vegetables for the stew. Dice the onion, mince the fresh garlic (if not using pre-minced garlic), also chop the potatoes into small cubes.
- Step 2: Wash and dice the carrots into 1″ size pieces, slice the zucchini into 1-2″ size pieces (these should be a bit bigger than the carrots; they get soft much faster). Don’t forget to peel and dice the tomatoes (if using fresh ones from your garden).
- Step 3: Lastly, if you are going to add meat to this stew, make sure the meat is fully cooked and chopped into bite sized chunks as well.
- Step 4: Cook: In a large stockpot, heat butter over medium heat. Add in onions, garlic, potatoes and carrots. Cook for about 5 minutes, stirring often, until onions are translucent.
- Step 5: Add in chicken broth. Cover and cook for 15 minutes, until potatoes and carrots are soft.
- Step 6: Add in zucchini, tomatoes, corn, chicken or ham (if desired) and seasonings (except cornstarch.) Heat for another 10-15 minutes or so, until mixture is hot and beginning to boil.
- Step 7: Reduce heat and add all but 2-3 TBSP of the evaporated milk. Mix remaining evaporated milk with the cornstarch and stir until combined. Stir it into the stew. Simmer for an additional 10 minutes. Salt & pepper to taste. Top with fresh diced cherry tomatoes & a little shredded Parmesan cheese once stew is ladled into each bowl. Serve and enjoy!
