Description

There are lots of tasty variations of this Italian hunter’s stew. Our slow carb version has winter (or invierno) written all over it. Tender chicken and meaty portobello mushroom simmer in a tomato-based sauce. Butternut squash fills out each serving delightfully, keeping it all veggie-forward.
