First slice up the onion & bell peppers. Place the sliced veggies in a medium bowl.
Clean & prep the chicken breast. Pat dry the chicken with a paper towel.
Cut the chicken breast into smaller pieces, then add the chicken to the bowl with the sliced veggies.
Season the chicken & veggies with the dry spices.
Next, add the wet ingredients - soy sauce and half of a lime to the chicken.
Mix all the ingredients together. Allow the chicken to marinate for at least 30 minutes or overnight.
Preheat a pan on medium-high heat and add the olive oil.
Once the oil is hot, add the chicken and veggies to the pan.
Sauté the chicken until it is no longer pink on the outside.
Then, add fresh garlic and stir until fragrant for a minute or two.
Add the tomato paste and stir for another 2 minutes or until it dissolves.
Add the water or chicken broth to the pan and allow the liquid to come to a boil.
Once the liquid comes to a boil, cover the pan with a lid.
Allow the chicken to cook for 35 to 45 minutes or until the chicken is cooked thoroughly.
*Note: ensure the chicken is done. Poultry is Safe @ 165 degrees Fahrenheit.
Tip: Make sure to check the liquid throughout cooking time so that it doesn’t dry up or get too low.
Once the stew chicken is done, serve with rice. Enjoy!
