Introduction
This is a thick hearty BOLD tasting stew. The ginger gives it a kick and the coconut milk adds a delicious texture and rich flavor. I was apprehensive at first as I wasn't too sure how this stew would turn out but it ended up being AMAZING, everybody loved it and had multiple servings, the pot was empty in no time !!! I promise this stew will not disappoint!(use homemade chicken broth and you can cut the sodium in half in this recipe)
(for extra protein add a can of chick peas, but rinse well to keep the sodium low) This is a thick hearty BOLD tasting stew.
