Drescription
This satisfying dish has a depth of flavor that belies its short ingredient list. Sazón seasoning typically includes coriander, cumin and oregano—look for one that also has achiote (annatto). The ground seeds of the evergreen Bixa orellana shrub, achiote gives the dish a bright orange hue. These blends, along with jarred sofrito, can be found with other Latin ingredients at most grocery stores.
Ingredients
- 1 (14 ounce) can fire-roasted diced tomatoes
- 1 cup water
- ½ cup jarred sofrito (see tip)
- 3 tablespoons crunchy natural peanut butter
- 2 teaspoon sazón seasoning with achiote
- 1 teaspoon ancho chile powder
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 bay leaf
- 3 pounds bone-in chicken thighs and/or drumsticks, skin removed, trimmed
- 3 medium carrots, cut into 1-inch pieces
- 3 small russet potatoes, peeled and cut into 1-inch pieces
Directions
- Combine tomatoes with their juice, water, sofrito, peanut butter, sazón seasoning, chile powder, salt and bay leaf in a 6-quart slow cooker. Nestle chicken into the mixture. Add carrots and potatoes, pressing them into the mixture. Cover and cook until the chicken and vegetables are very tender, about 5 hours on High or 8 hours on Low.
- Transfer the chicken to a clean cutting board. Discard the bay leaf. Shred the chicken; discard the bones. Stir the chicken into the stew.
