“Farm-fresh cream gave old-fashioned chicken stews a wonderful richness. This version uses half-and-half to cut the fat while keeping the luscious flavor.“

This recipe came together easily and was hearty and satisfying . I thought it needed a bit more salt and pepper though, as the seasoning was a bit bland for my taste.
