CALDO DE POLLO--MEXICAN CHICKEN STEW/SOUP



Caldo De Pollo--mexican Chicken Stew/soup image

This soup is a recipe of my friend's father who passed away a few years ago. It is soooo delicious I was shocked when I found out how easy it is to make!! the El Pato sauce called for in this recipe is easily found in the Mexican isle of your grociery store (unless you live in Queensland, Australia... can't find it here!! I have to have my sister send it to me from the U.S. just so I can make this soup!!) or at a Mexican market. Make sure to get the yellow can labelled "hot tomato sauce" or "salsa de chile fresco" It is really cheap... the grociery store in Colorado (where I used to live) sold it for 69 cents. It is the key to the soup. You can easliy change the meat to beef and use beef broth instead of water... or some nice white fish or shrimp..but if using seafood the seafood should be added in the last 5 minutes of cooking time. Also, you can play with the veggies too!! I do need to warn you that it is a little bit too spicy for most children.

MEXICAN CHICKEN STEW



Mexican Chicken Stew image

From Cook.com this is a good stew for winter. Go lightly on the cinnamon and cloves they tend to overpower the flavor. I like to slow cook my stews so I cooked a few hours.

This is a fabulous healthy stew that you can make as spicy as you like. Ease back on the amount of jalapeno if you like it less spicy. It is a great meal on a cold night! It is great served with sour cream or a little shredded cheese on top (or both!)
