Serves: 4

Print this Recipe

(Guisado de Pollo y Chile Poblano)
Category: Chicken Moles and Stews
Home-style stewed chicken is a favorite everyday kind of dish that's prepared all year round, with regional variations throughout Mexico. It's particularly wonderful as a cold-weather meal served with warm tortillas or good crusty bread to dip into the tasty sauce. The lime juice added just before eating is a classic touch and adds a refreshing brightness to the stew.


   1 tablespoon olive oil or vegetable oil
   1 large white onion, halved lengthwise and sliced
   4 skinless boneless chicken thighs, cut int 1-inch pieces
   3 boneless skinless chicken breast halves, cut in 1-inch pieces
   1 rib celery, sliced crosswise
   6 cloves garlic (medium), thinly sliced
   1 teaspoon dried oregano (Mexican variety preferred), crumbled
   1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
   1 large ripe tomato, peeled, seeded, and coarsely chopped
   2 1/2 cups canned fat-free reduced-sodium chicken broth
   4 poblano chiles, roasted, peeled and seeded

   1/2 teaspoon salt, or to taste
   1/8 teaspoon freshly ground pepper, or to taste
   Lime wedges


1. Heat the oil in a large saucepan over medium-high heat and cook the onion, stirring until it begins to brown, about 4 minutes. Add the chicken pieces, celery, garlic, oregano, cumin, tomato, and chicken broth. Bring to a boil; then reduce the heat to low, cover and simmer until the chicken is very tender, about 25 minutes.

2. Cut the chiles into 1-inch pieces and add to the stew. Season with salt and pepper. Cook 8 to 10 minutes to blend the flavors. Serve hot with lime wedges.
