Spicy Chicken Stew Recipes

Steps:

• Heat olive oil in a large pot over medium heat. Stir in onion and garlic; cook and stir until the onion has softened and turned translucent, about 5 minutes. Stir in sweet potato, bell pepper, chicken, tomatoes, and 2 cups of water. Season with salt, chili powder, cumin, oregano, cocoa powder, cinnamon, and red pepper flakes. Increase heat to medium-high and bring to a boil. Dissolve flour in 2 tablespoons water, and stir in to boiling stew. Reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer until the potatoes are tender but not mushy, 10 to 20 minutes. Stir the stew occasionally to keep it from sticking.
• Once the potatoes are done, stir in corn and kidney beans. Cook a few minutes until hot, then stir in cilantro before serving.

Steps:

• Spray 4- to 5-quart slow cooker with cooking spray. In slow cooker, mix potatoes, corn, carrots, celery, onion and garlic. Stir in salsa, cumin, chili powder and pepper. Place chicken on top of vegetable mixture. Pour broth over ingredients.
• Cover; cook on High heat setting 4 hours.
• Remove chicken from slow cooker to plate. Shred using 2 forks. Return chicken to slow cooker. Stir tortilla strips into stew. Garnish with cilantro.

Steps:

• In a Dutch oven, cook chicken and garlic in oil for 5 minutes. Stir in the beans, tomatoes, salsa and cumin. Cover and simmer until chicken is no longer pink, about 15 minutes. Stir in cilantro. Top with sour cream if desired.

Steps:

• Season the chicken with 1 teaspoon salt and a couple turns of black pepper. Heat a Dutch oven over medium-high heat. When hot, pour in 2 tablespoons vegetable oil. Add the chicken and cook, turning often, until brown on all sides, about 6 minutes; transfer to a bowl and set aside.
• Add the remaining 1 tablespoon vegetable oil to the pot and reduce the heat to medium. Add the onion, garlic, ginger and 1 teaspoon salt. Cook until the onion is softened, about 5 minutes. Add the sweet potato, apple, cayenne, chicken broth and 3 cups water; bring to a simmer. Stir in the kale, tomato and almond butter and simmer until the vegetables are tender, 10 to 15 minutes.
• Return the chicken to the pot and simmer until just cooked through, about 5 minutes. Serve topped with the cilantro.

Steps:

• Arrange chicken in a single layer in the bottom of a large Dutch oven. Add water to cover and bring to a boil. Lower heat and simmer until no longer pink at the bone and the juices run clear, 20 to 35 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted near the bone should read 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).
• Use a slotted spoon to remove chicken to a plate to cool; leave cooking liquid in the pot. When cool enough to handle, remove and discard chicken skin and bones. Shred meat and set aside.
• Add potatoes, diced tomatoes, onion, chili powder, salt, and pepper to the pot. Cook until potatoes are tender, 20 to 25 minutes.
• Add corn and shredded chicken to stew. Cook until heated through, 5 to 10 minutes. Taste and adjust seasonings. Simmer for another 10 to 15 minutes before serving.

Steps:

• Pour the hot stock over the peanut butter and stir until dissolved. Heat a very large pan and fry the onions in the oil for 5 mins to soften. Add the ginger, cayenne, if using, ½ tsp black pepper, coriander, cumin, chillies and bay and cook, stirring, for 2 mins.
• Tip in the tomatoes and the peanut stock, then stir in the chicken pieces. Put a lid on the pan and leave to simmer for 30 mins, stirring frequently to make sure the peanut butter doesn't stick to the base of the pan.
• Stir in the sweet potatoes, peppers and chopped coriander, then cook for 30 mins more. Serve sprinkled with the reserved coriander, with rice and lime wedges for squeezing over, if you like.

Steps:

• Place the chicken breasts into the bottom of a slow cooker, and pour tomatoes, green salsa, black beans, pinto beans, and corn over the chicken. Sprinkle taco seasoning, cilantro, ground red chile, and cumin over the mixture, and stir to combine. Cover the cooker, set on Low, and cook until chicken is very tender and the mixture has thickened, 8 to 10 hours.
• For soup, leave all liquid in the cooker; for a thicker stew, remove some liquid if desired. Mix 1 or 2 tablespoons of liquid with cream cheese in a bowl, stir until smooth, and mix the cream cheese into the cooker to make a creamy sauce. Continue to cook for 15 minutes, then serve.

Steps:

• Pull the skin off the chicken and discard. Heat the oil in a large casserole dish, brown the chicken all over, then remove with a slotted spoon. Tip in the onions, garlic and chillies, then fry for 5 mins until starting to soften and turn golden.
• Add the peppers, tomatoes, beans and hot stock. Put the chicken back on top, half-cover with a pan lid and cook for 50 mins, until the chicken is cooked through and tender.
• Stir through the coriander and serve with soured cream and crusty bread.

Steps:

• Place potatoes, corn, celery, carrots, onion and garlic in slow cooker. Stir in salsa, salt, cumin, chile powder and pepper. Distribute chicken evenly on top of vegetables and pour chicken broth over chicken.
• Place lid on slow cooker and cook on high for 4 hours.
• Transfer chicken to a plate and shred with 2 forks into bite-sized chunks. Return to slow cooker.
• Mix in tortilla strips into stew and serve warm.
