For a richer flavor, consider using whole milk or heavy cream in place of half-and-half, adjusting the consistency to your preference. A splash of dry sherry or a squeeze of fresh lemon juice just before serving can add a bright, complementary note to the stew. Garnish with a sprinkle of fresh parsley or chives for a touch of freshness and visual appeal. Serve with crusty bread or oyster crackers for dipping and soaking up every last drop of the flavorful broth.
