1 whole chicken, cut up & skin removed
1 onion, cut into large chunks
2 large potatoes, peeled & cut into large chunks
3 carrots, cut into large chunks
2 garlic cloves, crushed
2 (8 ounce) cans tomato sauce
1/4 cup chopped cilantro
water
garlic salt
salt & pepper
goya sazon goya, 2 packets or 1/2-1 teaspoon cumin
oil
cooked white rice
beans
avocado

1
Season Chicken with garlic salt, salt & pepper. Put a small amount of oil in a large pot, brown chicken on medium high heat, but don't cook all the way through.
2
Add the garlic and onion and cook for a few minutes. Add the potatoes, carrots, tomato sauce, cilantro, and sazon or cumin.
3
There should be enough liquid to cover most of the food, if it looks like it needs a little more liquid add either another can of tomato sauce or some water.
4
Reduce heat to low and cook until the chicken and veggies are done, I usually cook it for at least an hour, the longer the better though, because as the potatoes break down they thicken the sauce.
5
Serve with hot white rice, beans and slices of avocado. Yummy.
