My husband said the same thing. he couldn’t eat it. I loved it. I just added some more salt and pepper to mine.

I’m so happy to hear you loved this recipe and wishing you a speedy recovery!

I’m so glad you enjoyed it! Thank you for the wonderful review! Those are very fun and delicious additions. Thank you very much for taking your time for leaving a review.

I didn’t want to use so many potatoes — just four chopped — and two skinless bone-in chicken thighs, which as you’ve suggested in other recipes could be simply put in the pot as is (although in the future I will probably put some seasoning directly on them). And complemented the one large onion with two more onions. And some celery. And a can of drained and rinsed no-salt-added chickpeas. Instead of water I used unsalted chicken stock, and a variety of seasonings in addition to the rosemary, bay leaves, salt, and pepper (although as suggested I didn’t put the garlic in until the end of the cooking, which worked out well). The 20 minutes cooking plus several minutes of “natural release” (i.e., I was doing other stuff when the cooking time ended) before a quick release. Don’t forget to stir before serving.

A couple of further comments.
— As predicted, the bone from the chicken thigh separated itself very readily from the meat.
— The stew really does need more seasoning than the small amount of salt and pepper suggested (and rosemary, etc.) suggested.
— Putting in the minced garlic at the end did work out.
— In the future, I will probably add some frozen peas and also pepper strips, at the end.

Definitely a keeper!!!
