Asopao de pollo (chicken stew)
Ragout and stew
My children's second mom, our babysitter Norma Rivera, brought a lot of Puerto Rican food into our home. This recipe is easy, quick, and perfect for chilly nights. The sofrito, a puree of cilantro, sweet pepper, onion, and garlic, makes the dish fragrant and a little mysterious. You can use Italian frying pepper or any color of sweet pepper. Ajicito dulce is a particular kind of hot pepper, but a serrano can be used instead. The Adobo is a dry seasoning found in the Spanish section in most supermarkets. Alcaparrado is a mixture of green olives, capers, and pimentos, found in jars in the Spanish section. You may have to add water if reheating the next day, because the rice will soak up the broth.
