Chicken Barley on the open Fire! Leave a Comment / Outdoor Adventures / By Amanda and Tim / December 11, 2019 February 10, 2020This was so fun! Hubby and I had a lot of fun making this. It tasted so good! Your not going to get my favor unless you cook it on the open fire. Cause cooking over the fire and cooking over a stove doesn’t give you the same flavor!I used cut boneless skinless chicken breastsOnions, celery, carrots, peasBarleyBay leaves, thyme, salt, pepper, parsley, chicken stock powderButter or margarine and oilGet the fire going and the cauldron nice and hotI start with the oil, butter, salt, pepper, onions, celery, carrots. Cook for about 10 minites. Stirring frequently.Lucky is always close by. Snuggled in his feather blanket, laying in his bed outside, must be nice eh?! I add the chicken, barley and garlic now. Cook til chicken almost cooked. Stirring frequently.I then add everything else in about 8 cups of water. Boil for about 1 hour. Stirring occasionally. This should not stick to bottom of pot. When done it will be cooked down and nicely thickened. Serve with homemade bread.
