Super Easy Mex-Inspired Chicken Stew

x @cook_5886383

I kept this recipe mild for my 5 year old, but you could chop up a jalapeño or serrano and throw it in there for chili heat and flavor.

I like to serve it with:

Which you can get started after you set the stew to simmer.

  2. 1-1.5 teaspoonskosher salt
  3. 1/2an onion, cut into 1/4" slices vertically
  4. 4garlic cloves, crushed
  5. 12grape or cherry tomatoes (or you can cut a couple of Romas or regular salad tomatoes into 6 pieces each)

  7. 1/2 teaspoonachiote (or you can use chili powder or paprika)
  8. 2 Tablespoonslime juice
  9. 1/2 teaspoonsugar
  10. 1bay leaf
  11. 1/4 cupwater, white wine, or unsalted stock
  12. chopped cilantro and green onions

Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Layer the chicken thighs on the bottom of your pot (4 to 5 quart pot should do)

  2. 2

    Sprinkle salt evenly over chicken.

  3. 3

    Throw all the other ingredients in.

  4. 4

    Cover and turn heat on to medium, cooking for 30 minutes total, stirring occasionally. If it gets a little too bubbly in there and solids are starting to stick to the bottom, just turn the heat down a tad.

  5. 5

    Looks like this after the 30 mins. This is when you'd want to adjust seasonings, if needed.

    Turn heat down to low and cook, lid askew, for another 10 minutes.

  6. 6

    Sprinkle with cilantro and green onions. That's it!

  7. 7

    Enjoy. :)
