How to Make Algerian Chicken Stew
- In a large saucepan (at least 6-quart), combine 4 cups chicken broth, 1 chicken bouillon cube, 1.5 lbs boneless, skinless chicken thighs (cut into 1-inch pieces), 1 large onion (chopped), 1 cup green beans (trimmed and halved), 1 cup carrots (peeled and chopped), 2 teaspoons ground cumin, 1 tablespoon dried basil, 4 cloves garlic (minced), 2 bay leaves, 1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley, 1 teaspoon salt, and 1/2 teaspoon black pepper.
- Bring the mixture to a boil over medium-high heat.
- Reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 8 minutes.
