Slow-Cooker Peanut-Achiote Chicken & Vegetables

Step 1

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.

Step 2

Transfer the chicken to a clean cutting board. Discard the bay leaf. Shred the chicken; discard the bones. Stir the chicken into the stew.
