This is a recipe that I just pulled from the moth balls, we used to eat it as kids. I remember getting a big piping hot bowl of this stew/soup with a side of scallions. We used to take a bit of soup and bite into the scallion. We used to make it with marrow bones, but to reduce the fat we substituted chicken.
Ingredients:
2 cups chopped onions
2 -3 crushed garlic cloves
2 chopped zucchini
1 -2 chopped carrot
1 cup brown lentils
1 cup crushed tomatoes
2 skinless chicken thighs, with bone in
2 tablespoons olive oil
20 ounces chicken stock
salt and pepper
Directions:
1. Heat oil in large pot.
2. Add Garlic and Onions and cook till translucent.
3. Add Chicken and brown.
4. Add Carrots and Zuchini and cook for a few minutes.
5. Add Lentils and Tomatoes and season with salt and pepper.
6. Add Stock, Cover and allow to cook for about 2 hours on low heat. If the liquid gets low add more stock or water.
