This is a fabulous healthy stew that you can make as spicy as you like. Ease back on the amount of jalapeno if you like it less spicy. It is a great meal on a cold night! It is great served with sour cream or a little shredded cheese on top (or both!)
Ingredients:
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 medium onion, roughly chopped
4 large garlic cloves, roughly chopped
2 jalapenos, seeded and sliced
1 tablespoon dried oregano
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1 (28 ounce) can chopped tomatoes with juice
3 cups shredded cooked chicken
3 dashes worcestershire sauce
3 -4 cups chicken stock
1 lime
1 cup cooked white rice
salt
Directions:
1. Heat oil in a saucepan over medium heat. Add onion and saute for 2 minutes. Add garlic and jalapeno and cook until soft and translucent, about 2 minutes. Add spices and cook for 1 to 2 minutes more.
2. Add tomatoes, chicken, Worcestershire, and stock. Bring to a simmer and cook 20 minutes.
3. Cut the lime in half and squeeze the juice into the pot.
4. Add white rice and cook 5 minutes longer to warm rice through. Season to taste with salt.
