I'm a new father so it's time to put the crockpot to use. Furthermore, I'm a Puerto Rican father, so I had to put some Latin flavor into my Sunday crockpot dinner! Chicken Fricassee is the quintessential Latin stew. Serve with rice, tostones, and a nice salad.
Ingredients
1 pound chicken drumsticks
1 tablespoon adobo seasoning
½ (.18 ounce) packet sazon seasoning
½ teaspoon salt
5 large red potatoes, peeled and thickly sliced
1 large red bell pepper, seeded and chopped
1 large green bell pepper, seeded and chopped
1 large onion, chopped
5 cloves garlic, minced
1 bunch fresh cilantro, chopped
2 tablespoons olive oil
½ cup dry red wine
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1 teaspoon dried oregano
2 fresh or dried bay leaves
Instructions
Wash the chicken and pat dry; place into a large bowl.
Season with adobo seasoning, sazon seasoning, and salt.
Place the legs into a slow cooker, and cover with the potato slices.
Puree the red pepper, green pepper, onion, garlic, cilantro, olive oil, wine, cumin, and oregano in a blender. Pour over the chicken and add the bay leaves.
Cook on Low for 6 to 8 hours, until the chicken is easily removed from the bone.
