Method
5 clear steps
- 1
Spray a heavy iron skillet with cooking spray, and preheat over medium heat. Brown the chicken cubes, in batches, with cooking spray as needed.
- 2
Place the meat in a 3- or 4-quart casserole (with cover), and add the remaining ingredients.
- 3
Deglaze the skillet: On high heat, add some cold water and scrape the hardened juices with a spoon or spatula to dissolve them into the water. Add the sauce to the casserole.
- 4
Add water to barely cover the ingredients. Cover the casserole, and simmer until the stew is thick and the meat is very tender, about 1½ hours.
- 5
Add black pepper to taste before serving.
