Santa Fe Chicken Stew image

I was experimenting to create a stew similar to one I tasted when I was young. This is the result. My family asks me to make it so often that I am quickly becoming burned out on it! LOL. It has amazing flavor and if you like a thick stew, this is for you!

I've made this stew several times, and it's always a crowd-pleaser. The chicken is always cooked perfectly, and the sauce is flavorful and delicious. I usually serve it over rice, but it would also be great with pasta or potatoes.

I made this stew last night, and it was delicious! I used boneless, skinless chicken breasts, and they cooked perfectly. The sauce was flavorful and had just the right amount of heat. I served it over rice, and it was a perfect meal.
