Dominican Pollo Guisado (Chicken Stew)

Step 1

Chop veggies, garlic, cilantro and olives. Remove skin from chicken. Add chicken to large bowl and top with adobo, oregano and pepper. Add chopped ingredients and olive oil. Mix well and marinate (the longer the better).

Step 2

Heat cooking oil in a large pot over medium high heat.. Add sugar and stir continuously, about one minute, until sugar is caramelized. Add chicken, brown each side 5-6 minutes.

Step 3

Add remaining marination ingredients. Mix, cover and cook 4-5 minutes.

Step 4

Add chicken broth and tomato paste. Mix well. Cover and cook 45 minutes, stirring occasionally. Check your chicken with a fork. Is it falling off the bone? If not, continue cooking until it is.

Step 5

Serve alongside a heap of white rice.
