Number Of Ingredients 21

3 quarts water
2 pounds beef (preferably flank steak), cut into 3-inch hunks
1 pound pork chops
4 cloves garlic, chopped
1 medium onion, chopped
1 bunch cilantro, chopped (about 1/4 cup)
1 green bell pepper, chopped
2 hot green peppers, chopped
1/2 teaspoon fresh oregano
Salt and freshly ground pepper to taste
Tabasco sauce to taste
1/2 pound Jamaican pumpkin (calabaza), peeled and cut into 2- to 3-inch pieces
2 ears fresh corn, sliced into 1/2-inch rounds
1 pound white or yellow Caribbean yams, peeled and cut into 2- to 3-inch pieces
2 green plantains, peeled and cut into 2-inch slices
1 pound yuca (cassava), peeled and cut into 2- to 3-inch pieces

Steps:

  • Place the water in a large saucepan and add the meats, garlic, onion, cilantro, peppers, oregano, salt, pepper and Tabasco. Cook over medium heat until the meat is soft, about 45 minutes to 1 hour.
  • Remove the pork chops with a slotted spoon. Remove the bones and return to the pan. Add the pumpkin and the corn and simmer for 15 minutes.

I've tried many sancocho recipes, but this one is definitely my favorite. The broth is rich and flavorful, and the chicken is fall-off-the-bone tender. I love serving it with rice and a dollop of sour cream.
