Ground Chicken & Zucchini Stew: A Light and Healthy Meal for Cats and Dogs
Ingredients
- 1 /4 pound chicken - ideally ground, but not necessary (lean, unseasoned)
- 1 /4 cup zucchini (grated or finely chopped)
- 1-2 tablespoons water or low-sodium chicken broth
- Optionally, you can add a bunch of green peas too
Instructions
- Cook the ground chickenHeat a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Add the ground chicken and cook, breaking it into small pieces, until there’s no pink left (about 8-10 minutes). No oil or seasoning—keep it simple for your pets.
- Prepare the zucchiniWhile the chicken is cooking, grate or finely chop the zucchini. If your pet prefers softer textures, steam the zucchini for 3-5 minutes to make it tender.
- Combine the ingredientsOnce the chicken is cooked, add the grated or steamed zucchini to the pan. Mix well and cook for another 2-3 minutes to blend the flavors.
- Add moisturePour in water or chicken broth to create a stew-like consistency. Stir well and let it simmer for 1-2 minutes.
- Cool and serveLet the stew cool to room temperature before serving. Portion it out based on your pet’s size, and watch them enjoy every bite!
