This hearty chicken stew combines tender chicken pieces with potatoes in a rich tomato-based sauce, perfect for a comforting meal.
Prepare the chicken by removing the skin and cutting it into serving-sized pieces.
Removing the skin helps reduce the fat content of the dish.
Peel and quarter the potatoes, then set them aside.
Cut the potatoes into even sizes to ensure they cook uniformly.
In a large bowl, mix the chicken pieces with the chicken bouillon powder until evenly coated.
Let the chicken sit for a few minutes to absorb the flavors.
Heat some oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add the chopped onion, tomatoes, and bell pepper, and sauté until softened.
Stir frequently to prevent the vegetables from sticking to the pot.
Add the seasoned chicken and potatoes to the pot and cook until the chicken is lightly browned.
Browning the chicken adds a depth of flavor to the stew.
Pour in the tomato sauce and water, ensuring the chicken and potatoes are covered. Add the cilantro and adjust the salt if needed.
Bring the mixture to a gentle simmer to allow the flavors to meld.
Cover the pot and let it cook for about 30 minutes, or until the potatoes are tender and the chicken is fully cooked.
Check occasionally and stir to prevent sticking.
Serve the stew hot with a side of white rice or bread.
Garnish with extra cilantro for a fresh touch.
