One of our favourite places is Greece and Mr looooves stifado, I’ve never attempted it but is there any need when he makes it so well (hope he doesn’t read that haha)? He usually makes it the normal way with beef but he made it with chicken and sausage once and oh my it was AMAZING! Definitely a new favourite for all of us. It does take some prep and a while to cook but it is relatively simple method wise. Enjoy!
