Soy-Braised Chicken Stew


Since I turned on the stove to steam stuff for the floofs, I decided that the humans should get something too. Ordered a bunch of ingredients, including a 1.6kg whole Anxin chicken, and a pack of skinless chicken breast. 

The kiddos got their steamed pumpkin, broccoli and carrots. Those went into freezer trays for consumption over the next two weeks. These are toppers for their meals. Choya takes the steamed pumpkin. Some variety in her food is always good, and pumpkin is one of those magic ingredients that balances the gut flora. 

I boiled up an easy pot of soy-braised chicken stew with potatoes and carrots, and fried up some vegetables. Had to watch the braising time for chicken breast since those turn rubbery easily. The man was super pleased for a pot of tasty stew. He declined to have it with rice, and instead opted to have shokupan with it. LOL Alrighty, that worked too. #ImpieCooks2025

The portions for the humans sufficed for dinner, as well as another two meals. It's great for those days when we have long work calls and a grueling schedule. I'm usually not as fussy with food. As long as the man is fed, he's happy.
