Puerto Rican-Style Chicken Stew

[Unic0rn76]

Does anyone have the recipe for the Puerto Rican-Style Chicken Stew from the Latin cookbook? I forgot my cookbook at home and someone asked me for the recipe.

Thanks!

3/4 lb smoked ham
3/4 lb boneless, skinless chicken thighs
2 tsp. vegetable oil, divided
1 can (48 oz.) chicken broth
1 1/2 cups prepared sofrito
1/2 cup chopped fresh cilantro
2 tbsp chopped fresh oregano
1 can (15 oz) pigeon peas, drained
1 cup cooked white rice
2 medium avocados
Hot sauce (optional)

Dice ham into 1/2-inch pieces using Chef's Knife. Dice chicken into 1-inch pieces. In (8qt.) Stockpot, heat 1 tsp of the oil over medium-high heat 1-3 minutes or until shimmering. Add ham to Stockpot and cook 2-3 minutes or until browned, stirring occasionally with Mega Scraper. Remove ham to Classic Batter Bowl. Add remaining 1 tsp oil and chicken to Stockpot. Cook chicken 3-4 minutes or until browned, stirring occasionally.

Add ham, broth, tomato sauce and sofrito to Stockpot. Bring to a simmer; reduce heat to medium. Chop cilantro and oregano; set cilantro aside. Add oregano, pigeon peas and rice to stew; cook 5 minutes.

Meanwhile, peel and dice avocados using Avocado Peeler. Ladle stew into bowls, top with avocado, cilantro and hot sauce, if desired.
