I have this recipe for Olive Stew from my mother in law and I want to say that is one of our favorite dishes.
It is my first entry for Puiul Vegetarian challenge and my opinion about this chicken it’s that it taste GREAT!
It is a very easy to make recipe and need just few ingredients.
Nothing special to make when you cook this but you will get an amazing dinner under 1 hour.
