Steps:

• Pour in the diced tomatoes with chiles, beef broth and chile peppers. Stir in the garlic salt and cumin. Salt and pepper to taste.
• Bring to a boil, reduce heat and simmer for 1 hour. Add a little more beef broth or water if needed during simmering.
• Stir in cubed potatoes to the mixture and simmer for an additional 30 minutes or until potatoes are tender.

Steps:

• 1. In a large stew pot or dutch oven, warm the olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the onions and garlic and stir. Cook until translucent. Add the jalepeño, and cook until softened.
• 2. Add the red bell pepper and tomato and cook until softened.
• 3. Cut the corn from the cob and add to the pot along with the potatoes, and cook for 1-2 minutes.
• 4. Add in all the beans and, most importantly, the green chiles. Pour in the vegetable stock until the liquid comes just to the top of the vegetables.
• 5. Bring the stew to a boil and reduce the heat to very low. Cover and allow to gently simmer for at least 30 minutes, but the longer you let it simmer the better.

Steps:

• Season chicken thighs generously with salt and pepper. Heat oil in a Dutch oven or heavy-bottomed pot over medium-high heat. Dredge chicken in flour and shake off excess. Brown chicken well on both sides, then remove and set aside.
• Add onions to pot, season lightly with salt and cook, stirring, until softened and beginning to brown, 6 to 8 minutes. Add garlic and cumin, and cook for 1 minute. Then add chopped chiles and chicken stock and bring to a boil.
• Return chicken to pot; reduce heat to a brisk simmer, and cook, covered with lid ajar, for 30 minutes. Add potatoes and carrots and cook for 20 to 25 minutes more, until vegetables are soft but not falling apart.
• Skim fat from surface of sauce. Taste for seasoning and adjust salt. For a thicker sauce, add dissolved cornstarch and stir well. Cook for 1 minute more.
