Brunswick Chicken

The Brunswick chicken is a traditional stew of the southern United States. Its origin is uncertain, although it is believed that it may come from the city of Brunswick (Georgia), Brunswick County (Virginia) or Brunswick County (North Carolina).

Regardless of its origin, this stew consists of a tomato base that can contain: Lima beans, corn, okra and more vegetables and one or more types of meat. The recipes that claim to be the original contain squirrel or rabbit meat, although stews with chicken, pork and beef are also very common.

The chicken that we teach you to cook here is not exactly American stew (which by the way looks horrible), but an adaptation of an English recipe for Brunswick-style chicken thighs.

The mixture of flavors is at least original, and it is not typical to what we are used to, but precisely for that reason this dish is ideal to surprise friends and family with something new. In addition, it is delicious.
