You'll want to prepare our chicken stew for dogs and serve it year-round. It's guaranteed to make your dogs go crazy with anticipation for dinnertime. And it's so darn easy to make and should take you only about 10 minutes to throw all the ingredients together!There's no measuring of ingredients or real work involved. We have medium to large dogs in our household, so we don't cut the meat. Of course, you should cut the meat if you're cooking for small dogs.
* Chicken hearts and gizzards (two to four packs)
* Boneless skinless chicken thighs (large, family-sized pack)
* Chicken livers (two small tubs) - optional
* Fresh or frozen broccoli, cauliflower, zucchini, carrot blend
* Fresh or small package of frozen french-style green beans
* Small or large package of frozen chopped spinach (add the amount you desire)
* Cut sweet potatoes (can buy fresh and already cut and ready to use) - optional
* One cut fresh apple minus core and seeds (optional)
* Diced celery (optional)
* Two 28-ounce cans of pealed, diced tomatoes (use low sodium brands, if possible)
* Dried (or fresh) parsley
* Garlic powder (not garlic salt)
* Dried rosemary
* Dried sage
* Thyme
* Cinnamon
Once all the ingredients are in a stew pot (add enough, preferably filtered, water to cover 3/4 of the pot's contents). Remember, frozen vegetables will yield more water. When we use frozen vegetables, we use only 1 to 1-1/2 of the 28-ounce cans full of water. Cook till chicken thighs are thoroughly cooked. Completely cool before feeding to your dogs.
Other ingredients you can add instead of or in addition to those listed are yellow squash, but NO onions.
Note: You can add some of the stew to any kibble you already feed your dogs to eliminate stomach upset. Or cook brown rice and serve the stew over brown rice. In our house, our dogs regularly eat raw vegetables and raw and cooked meat, so they're used to all the stew ingredients.
This recipe yields generous portions for at least four nights' dinner.
We'll bet your dogs are going to love their chicken stew!
