CHICKEN STEW 1 Onion 1 Bell Pepper 2 Sticks of Celery 4-5 lbs of Chicken (Legs, Thighs, & Wings) Salt and Pepper for flavor 3/4 Cup of Vegetable Oil 1 Cup of All Purpose Flour 1 (32 oz) Container of Chicken Stock 1/2 Tablespoon of Cajun or Creole Seasoning 1 Tablespoon of Parsley Flakes 1 Tablespoon of Minced Garlic 1 Teaspoon of Garlic Powder 1 Cup of Water Rice to serve with Start out by heating large pot and pan over medium heat. Chop your onion, bell pepper, celery, and set aside. Season both sides of your chicken generously with salt and pepper. At this time, you want to get a roux started in your large pot. Add your 3/4 cup of vegetable oil and 1 cup of flour to your large pot. Stir consistently until you reach a milk chocolate looking color. While cooking the roux, add a small amount of vegetable oil to your hot pan. Sear the chicken for roughly 4 minutes on each side or until you see some browning. This may be a little tricky, because you want to make sure you keep going back to your roux. Adjust your temperatures accordingly, so you can avoid burning the roux. Once you have browned both sides of your chicken, remove to a bowl, then drop in your chopped vegetables. You want them to get very soft, so sauté them for roughly 30 minutes. Once the vegetables are very soft, add in the Chicken Stock, Cajun Seasoning, Parsley Flakes, Minced Garlic, Garlic Powder, and Water. If your roux has reached a milk chocolate color, then you can add the chicken stock mixture to the roux. If not, then just keep stirring the roux until you get the desired color. When you mix in the chicken stock mixture with the roux, lower your heat and stir. Add in your chicken, pouring in any excess drippings. Bring to a boil, lower to simmer, cover and let cook for 2 hours. Cook sum rice and Enjoy! 😊 *Add salt for more flavor *Add pepper for more spice

Finally found the recipe for this! I grew up eating this and haven't had any good chicken stew in years. Thank you!

I LOVE YOUR RECIPES and your energy!! Keep them coming!! 💞

I love that you take the time to respond to everyone's comment. It's really awesome that you connect with your fans in that way. So how did you learn to cook so damn good? And does your wife share your passion for cooking?

Awesome video, easy to follow recipe! Thank U for sharing! 👍🏿

Made this recipe for the family today. Outstanding! Thanks The Cajun Ninja.

I made this today for my family. They loved it. Thanks for the recipe and the video. Keep up the good work.

Man oh man we was cookin ! Just made this and had to have seconds!! I don’t think I’ll be getting off the coach anytime soon. So good and easy to make with your instructions. Excellent!!!

I made this for the family two days ago and they loved it so much that they asked for the recipe. Thank You so much! ❤

Your chicken looks soo fresh! =) This is one of the best recipes of Cajon Chicken Stew videos I’ve seen and I’ve seen a lot.

Grew up eating this all the time and finally attempted to make it myself, my family loved it!!! Recipe came out great will add more heat next time, keep up those yummy cajun recipes 🦀🦐🍴

I am sooooo happy someone shared one of your videos on Facebook! I have made the chicken stew, spaghetti and meatballs, shrimp and tasso pasta and tonight the roast beef poboys! EVERYTHING is delicious but so far this chicken stew is by far my favorite! You have taken over my weekly menu!

I just love watching your videos. We would have called this Chicken Brown Stew. And we wouldn't have used the celery or green bell peppers. But we would have made up the difference with more onions. My son has been suggesting some chicken brown stew lately. I might just have to make some after seeing this video. This makes me miss my parents so much. My Dad was a cajun, born and raised in Morgan City, Louisiana and was an excellent cook. He taught my mom how to cook. So I always ate good food. Unfortunately my Dad passed away almost 25 years ago, but, I was fortunate enough to have my Mom for another 20years after my Dad passed, and she continued to cook up until the day before she died. Now for the last 5years I've been been having to do all of the cooking myself. Alot of it I watched my parents cook and know how to fix it. I've come to you and your videos to get the recipes for things like ettouffee because those were usually things they fixed for company. They were a little bit more expensive and they didn't fix them often. I miss them often, but, even more so when I watch one of your videos. It's Smothered Pork Chops tonight and maybe some Chicken Brown Stew tomorrow. I just love how the base for one is perfect for other meats as well. We would also have Beef Brown Stew, or Shrimp Brown Stew (which BTW was always served with mashed potatoes, where all of the other Brown Stews were served with rice). We even had Pork Chop Brown Stew. OK, I am officially hungry now. Time to get dinner started. Thanks again!

Made this recipe this weekend & it was a big hit with the family. So glad I found your recipes. I also made the shrimp fettuccine for an event & itgot great reviews too. I have shared with my daughters too so they can get the hang of Cajun cooking.

I tried this and it was great thank you... I love the way you talk you are so entertaining. Keep the recipes coming.

It looks just like the ones grandma use to make. Yum.

Its good to see someone from my area of Louisiana making a home cooking southern dish. This is how we do it.

New to the channel and had to laugh at loud a few times. This guy is so animated lol. He is what would be if Emeril Lagassae and Justin Wilson (old school Louisiana chef) had a love child LOL. Good stuff

This my favorite video on KZfaq lol keep it up chief

Thanks for sharing your culinary skills VIA NOLA!!! Chicken 🐔 stew off the chisel for shizzel!! We truly enjoyed it!!! Peace and love to you and yours✊🏿!!!

The fact at how exciting your food is to you is great

Cooking this as we speak and it's smelling real good in my kitchen right now!

One of my fiancé’s favorite meals now! Thanks for teaching me how to cook !

I have never really succeeded with chicken stew. I made this last weekend (I added a couple of cans of butter beans) and it transported me back to the kitchen at my Mema's house. IShared it with my Dad. The best chicken stew I ever made. Thank you! How about a recipe for sticky chicken?

Now that's what I am talking about. Have a question where do you get you pot and pans from.

Made this morning and had it for lunch...Freakin Awesome...Thanks Cajun Ninja

Made this today and it was soooo delicious!!!! I don’t think it’ll make it to tomorrow!!! 😋😋😋😋😋 thanks for sharing!!

You taught me how to cook gumbo..my Jamaican husband said it "tastes just like his grandma's". PiYaaaaah

I am learning Cajun food, you make it so much fun. Thank you

Making this for dinner as I type, lol. I'm married to a Scotsman so we add potatoes to anything we can and this seemed like one of them.

So glad I found your videos!!! I'm from Port Allen, LA and moved to Kansas City, MO. Hard being away from home and not being able to get that home cooking. Tried this recipe for your chicken stew and it came out wonderfully!!! I love it and please keep the recipes coming!!! Great job!!!

Mannn we tried this last night, and it was sooo good! 2 for 2 using your recipes and I’m starting to look like I know what I’m doing in the kitchen. Thank you!!

Thank you so much! I have made the tastiest chicken stew ever... and it was my first time. Pi-Yahhhhh! You’re awesome. Keep posting.

I got try this recipe! I was thinking of adding spicy smoked sausage.

I made this tonight and it was amazing thanks so much for the recipe.

Ninja you keep it going! Anything with chicken good! Thanks for another superb video recipe!

haha! Wifey frowned at your messy ways. Good eatin' and an upbeat video. Thanks. Also, love some old-fashioned smothered chicken on rice. Yum!

Love the "mess" on the floor. That's so me!

Made this yesterday....was delicious!!! Just like my Momma used to make!

Yessss sir, that looks delicious!

Hey Ninja! I made this yesterday. I'm from North Louisiana and my husband is from South Lousiana. My husband enjoyed this chicken stew. I made potato salad and hot watered cornbread to complement your recipe. We ate leftovers chicken stew today lol.

Yes sir yes sir......that the way granny use ta do it!😋 subscribed!!

I've made this before after watching your video and it was delicious. My mom and my sister asked me to make this for them and I did. They loved it too. I will make this again.

Whew lawd, my momma used to make this all the time! I am making this today.

So i see theres different way making stew i gotta try this it looks amazing and it looks like it taste real good.

I don’t know why I’m surprised you said salt and pepper after “season really good” 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

I burnt my roux for this and tried to make it work. After about 15 minutes of simmering I tasted it and decided it was a waste. But then I remembered your sticky chicken recipe and fished the chicken and vegetables out of my failed stew, and did your sticky chicken recipe. It’s been the best mistake ever! The roux residue just made it so delicious and added a little Smokey richness to it. I’m gonna add a tablespoon of roux every time I make your sticky chicken now. Thank you for all of your amazing recipes!

Do you stir the stew as it's cooking? Or just let it do it's thang? thanks in advance.

I made this recipe about a year ago and it is one of my best to date! Full of flavor 💯

360 with the roux wrist boiiiiii....lol lovin it!

Love your recipes....I have everything I need for this particular dish but instead of vegetable oil ,I have canola oil...can that be used or should I wait to get vegetable oil?

Thanks Cajun Ninja for this Chicken Stew recipe!! It's as close to grandma's as you can ever get.....delicious!! ❤❤

Oh yes indeed! I’m cooking this tonight about to start it right now and I’m so excited cuz your recipes are the best!!!!

Man that's some good looking chicken stew I'm definitely going to try this recipe

looks great!!!

Love this recipe. Do you have a video on seafood gumbo?

There is nothing better than a cajun dish on a saturday night while watching a UFC fight!!

Looks great! Can you use a Jazmin rice or just stay with a long grain rice?

Sir! You the Cajun king!! I made this chicken! Delicious! Followed these steps but all necessary replacements for a beef stew and that took you from ninja to king! Few beef neck bones and boneless short ribs a few veggies...simma down na! 😋😋😋😋

awesome job. Merci!

New subscriber boy you crack me up! 🤣

I need to double the chicken in this recipe and I don't have a pot big enough to hold all of it so could I let it cook for the 2 hours in the oven?

It looks good ..

Heyyy! I'm kind of your neighbor here in Beaumont been here for about 20 years but I've always thought this was like smothered chicken what is the difference, still learning! I love your videos. I may not ever "be" Cajun😔 (love the culture) but definitely trying to learn to cook it!😁thanks for posting

Hello Cajun Ninja, I've really enjoyed watching your videos and can't wait to try all of your delicious looking recipes. I tried this chicken stew today for dinner and came out delicious. It was a BIG hit with the family!! However, I have one question; in your typed recipe below, you state to use 1 TABLESPOON of Tony seasoning but in your video you say "1 teaspoon" which is what I used. Does it matter? haha :)

Here I go trying this lol I’m Korean trying to cook like y’all!lol but been in Louisiana for about 18yrs and still haven’t been able to cook good!!!

Man, made this last night. Took some time, but that was some rib sticking good food there. Appreciate the recipe and the video. Send me your address so I know where to send my clothing bill from gaining this weight.

Very nice to see Cajun food represented by Cajuns. I wonder, does anyone know if corn starch can be used instead of flour? My son and I are allergic to flour. Blessings

What size is that pain you cook your onions in???? Love you videos. Keep them coming

This recipe is 1000 times is better than the last season of Game of Thrones....

Cookin' tonight boy!

Always enjoy the video man and I'm right around the corner!! Breaux bridge 👊💯

It came out delicious, Thank you👍🏿🥰

Good God! I’m glad I found your channel. People think I can cook ! Charlie Norris, hahaha

I'm from lafayette....you cooked this stew ma boi ...man i can smell it through the computer sha...

I just love your recipe and this I'll be making today. Thanks so much.

I suck at making roux. So can I buy the already made roux from the store. And how much do you recommend to use for this recipe

I love your videos and this is my first time trying to make the chicken stew it looks like mine is a little thick I hope when cooking down it starts to look more like yours crossing my fingers!!

What type/kind of pan are both of these?

ooo well thats goes on my list of thing to try

Making for the 1st time today!! We'll see how it comes out

I have always cooked mine the very same way so did my ancestors

What size and name brand your red ceramic pot?????

I’m having an issue with it being too watery. Should I just cook out the water or try and add some flour?

Can you tell me the brand name and size pots you use… the red ones? If you have a link that would be 👍🏽…thanks!

Great Recipe

That actually looks pretty good! I may have to try it, but I'm gonna go with boneless chicken.

I love this channel

I know this is an older video, but I just stumbled upon it, and Im making it this week. Looks delicious. I know my teen boys will love this meal.

Wow, this looks delicious. I am making it this week! ! :-)

Made it and was awesome

Looks good

I BROWN MY MEAT AND VEG THEN ADD WATER TO IT..LET IT BOIL FOR ABOUT A HR ...GET MY KITCHEN BOUQUET AND FLOUR AND WATER FOR THE GRAVY THEN SEASON ..ALMOST THE SAME :) YOURS LOOKS GOOD!

U rock Guy 🙌🏻‼️😅🤓

I didn't read thru all the omments and maybe this was asked already but why oil instead of butter for the rue?

My daughter wants me to cook a chicken stew today but she wants me to use boneless chicken. Can I substitute the bone in chicken with bonesless chicken for this recipe?

If I used jar roux how much would I use ?

What the name of your red strew pot? I look all over for it! Great Cajun Cookin' Cajun Friend! 🙂👍🏼

I can honestly say, in my 40 years, I have never seen chicken stew that looks like that. The Chicken Stew I have always seen has vegetables and potatoes in it and was never served with rice or corn. My husband, who is from the south says this is all hes ever known. It must be a southern thing. I look forward to trying it. Thanks!

Your presentation was fabulous but i was devastated at the end when u covered the stew to slow cook anotber 2 hours!
