MAIN COURSE: Potato Stewed with Chicken
|
|
|
Potato and chicken stew is a classic example of everyday Eastern European comfort food. After potatoes were introduced to the region in the 18th century, they quickly became a staple, often paired with whatever meat was available. Slow simmering in one pot made this dish practical for village kitchens and outdoor cooking alike—much like your version, which has that rustic, fire-cooked feel.

NEW RECIPE
Smoked BBQ Shrimp
These smoked shrimp are incredibly juicy, lightly smoky, and coated in a tangy barbecue glaze with horseradish, Worcestershire sauce, and fresh lemon juice. They cook quickly over gentle indirect heat, making them an excellent appetizer or main course for backyard cookouts. Apple or alder wood adds a mild, sweet smoke that complements the delicate flavor of the shrimp without overpowering them.
