Zesty chicken and chorizo stew cooked low and slow with spicy peppers for a satisfying, flavorful Mexican dish.
Ingredients:
  • 4 skinless, boneless chicken breast halves
  • 1 onion, chopped
  • 1 (15 ounce) can tomato sauce
  • 1 (7 ounce) can chipotle chile peppers in adobo sauce, chopped and seeded
  • 2 fresh jalapeno peppers, seeded and chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 teaspoon ground oregano
  • 1 teaspoon ground cumin
  • 1 teaspoon chili powder
  • 0.25 teaspoon red pepper flakes
  • 0.75 (1 pound) chorizo sausage
Instructions:
