Cranberry Chicken Antioxidant Stew
A gentle chicken based stew with cranberries and pumpkin to support urinary health, immune balance and antioxidant protection.
Equipment
- Ladle or large spoon
- Cutting board and knife
- - Measuring cups
Food ingredients
- Skinless chicken breast or thigh diced
- Unsweetened dried cranberries or low sugar cranberry puree dog safe
- Pumpkin puree plain, unsweetened
- Cooked white or brown rice
- Low sodium chicken broth
- Small amount of finely chopped green beans
- Vet approved calcium source
Operation steps
- Gently simmer the diced chicken in low sodium broth until fully cooked and tender.
- Add the green beans and cook until they are soft but not mushy.
- Stir in the pumpkin puree, cooked rice and dog safe cranberry, adjusting the broth so the stew stays thick but spoonable.
- Remove from heat, add the calcium source and mix well so it is evenly distributed.
- Cool completely before serving, and start with smaller portions if your dog has not had cranberries before.
note
If you don’t want to cook daily, check our dry food picks - those were Ethan’s daily backups.
For urinary and immune support, I do not rely on this cranberry stew alone. On weeks when Ethan needs steadier help, I pair this recipe with a measured dose of
NaturVet Cranberry Support so the active cranberry ingredients stay consistent even when we rotate through different meals. I usually simmer bigger batches in the
COOKER KING 3 Qt Ceramic Saucepan and then freeze thick, stew like blocks in
Souper Cubes 1/2 Cup Trays, which makes alternating between fresh stew and dry food much easier.
