Directions

  1. Place chicken pieces in a bowl and season generously with ranchero sazon criollo. Add onion, Cubanelle peppers, sazon liquido, and garlic paste. Toss to coat chicken evenly.

  2. Put oil in the bottom of a heavy pot. Add brown sugar and do not stir. Turn heat to medium-high and cook until sugar is very, very dark brown but not burned, 5 to 10 minutes. Carefully add chicken pieces to the pot 1 at a time, reserving vegetables and any liquid left in the bowl. Stir chicken, coating each piece with sugar-oil mixture. Cover and cook for 8 to 10 minutes.

  3. Add tomato paste, celery, and bouillon powder to the pot and stir to combine. Cover and reduce heat to medium-low. Let stew until chicken is cooked and tender, 15 to 30 minutes.

Recipe Note

After spending many years living in the Dominican Republic, nothing takes me back more than making a big batch of pollo guisado, the most tender, flavorful chicken you'll ever eat. Serve this with Dominican rice and beans and a slice of fresh avocado. The hard-to-find Dominican ingredients can easily be ordered online.
