👨🍳 Instruções
- 1
Season the chicken pieces generously with adobo and sazon seasoning, ensuring all sides are coated.
- 2
Heat olive oil in a large pot or Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Add the chicken pieces and brown them on all sides, working in batches if necessary to avoid overcrowding the pan. Remove the chicken and set aside.

Add the chopped onion and bell pepper to the same pot and sauté until softened, about 3-4 minutes. Stir in the minced garlic and sofrito and cook for another minute until fragrant.
- 4
Return the chicken to the pot. Add the potato chunks, carrot slices, tomato sauce, chicken broth, and bay leaves. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
- 5
Bring the stew to a boil, then reduce the heat to low, cover, and simmer for 45-60 minutes, or until the chicken is tender and cooked through, and the vegetables are fork-tender.

Remove the bay leaves before serving. Adjust seasoning if needed. Serve hot, typically with white rice.
