Simple Chicken Stew

Finally after one week of HFMD saga, my two kids' appetite are slowly back to normal! They  requesting me to prepare yummy food for them after days of bland food... hahahah start to get busy in kitchen again! Today I satisfy their little tummy with this simple and fuss free chicken stew. I cook this dish umpteen times but never document in my blog! This recipe is very versatile and straight forward. My kids like potato therefore I added more. If you like celery, you can toss in some too for extra fibre. No fresh herbs at home, try using dried Italian mixed herbs which works well too! I love Worcestershire sauce and HP sauce as it gives a tangy taste to this hearty stew. My kids never fail to give praise to Mummy's simple chicken stew, hope you will like it too! ^0^
