Puerto Rican Chicken

Ingredients

• 1 whole chicken, cut up & skin removed
• 1 onion, cut into large chunks
• 2 large potatoes, peeled & cut into large chunks
• 3 carrots, cut into large chunks
• 2 garlic cloves, crushed

• 2 (8 ounce) cans tomato sauce
• 1/4 cup chopped cilantro
• water
• garlic salt
• salt & pepper
• goya sazon goya, 2 packets or 1/2-1 teaspoon cumin
• oil
• cooked white rice
• beans
• avocado

Directions

1. 1

   Season Chicken with garlic salt, salt & pepper. Put a small amount of oil in a large pot, brown chicken on medium high heat, but don’t cook all the way through.

2. 2

   Add the garlic and onion and cook for a few minutes. Add the potatoes, carrots, tomato sauce, cilantro, and sazon or cumin.

3. 3

   There should be enough liquid to cover most of the food, if it looks like it needs a little more liquid add either another can of tomato sauce or some water.

4. 4

   Reduce heat to low and cook until the chicken and veggies are done, I usually cook it for at least an hour, the longer the better though, because as the potatoes break down they thicken the sauce.

5. 5

   Serve with hot white rice, beans and slices of avocado. Yummy.
