Chicken and Sweet Potato Stew

This hearty stew is packed with protein and carbohydrates, making it a nutritious and filling meal for your dog. It’s also incredibly easy to make, requiring just a few simple ingredients and minimal preparation time.

Ingredients Instructions Notes

Ingredients

2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
1 sweet potato (diced)
1 cup peas
1 carrot (sliced)
2 cups low-sodium chicken broth

Instructions

In a large pot, cook the chicken breasts over medium heat until no longer pink. This should take about 10-12 minutes. Remove the chicken from the pot and set it aside to cool.
While the chicken is cooling, prepare the vegetables. Peel and dice the sweet potato, slice the carrot, and measure out the peas. Set the vegetables aside.
Once the chicken has cooled, shred it into small, bite-sized pieces using a fork or your hands. Set the shredded chicken aside.
Return the pot to the stove and add the diced sweet potato, sliced carrot, peas, and chicken broth. Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat to low and let it simmer for about 20 minutes or until the vegetables are tender.
Once the vegetables are cooked, add the shredded chicken back to the pot. Stir well to combine all the ingredients and allow the stew to simmer for an additional 5 minutes to let the flavors meld together.
Remove the pot from the heat and let the stew cool before serving it to your dog. This will prevent any potential burns and allow the flavors to develop further.
Once the stew has cooled, it is ready to be served. You can either serve it on its own as a complete meal or mix it with your dog’s regular kibble to add some variety and extra nutrients.
Any leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to three days. Before serving any leftovers, make sure to reheat them thoroughly to kill any bacteria that may have grown.
