Ingredients

Rations:

For the soup

  • 1 whole chicken (about 1.8 kg), cut into 8 pieces.
  • 1 tbsp. of Complete Seasoning
  • 4 packets of Goya Chicken Powder Cubes
  • 1 tbsp. minced garlic
  • 1 large onion, chopped
  • 0.5 cup sofrito
  • 8 sprigs fresh cilantro, plus 3 tbsp. chopped fresh cilantro for garnish
  • 2 medium red potatoes, peeled and cut into 2-inch chunks
  • 1 package of Sancocho

For the hot sauce or chili

Preparation

  1. Make sofrito: In a frying pan, add chopped onion and tomato with 1 tablespoon of olive oil and butter.
  2. Prepare the broth: Season the chicken with Sazonador Total and set aside. In a large pot, combine 2.5 liters of water, the chicken bouillon packets, garlic, onion, Sofrito and 8 sprigs of cilantro. Bring the mixture to a boil over medium-high heat. Then reduce heat and simmer for 10 minutes.
  3. Cooking the chicken: Remove and discard the cilantro sprigs. Gently add chicken thighs, legs and wings to the pot; simmer (do not boil) for 15 minutes. Add the chicken breasts and continue to simmer until the chicken is cooked through (juices should run clear and a thermometer should register 74 °C when inserted into the thickest part of the chicken without touching the bone), about 10 minutes more. Remove any foam or fat that rises to the surface.
  4. Add vegetables: Add potatoes and thawed Goya Sancocho Goya to pot with chicken; simmer until vegetables are completely tender, about 15 minutes. Taste soup and adjust seasoning with salt and pepper if necessary.
  5. Prepare chili: In a small bowl, mix 125 ml water, Goya habanero chile sauce, tomato, scallion, Adobo, and olive oil. Stir until well combined; season to taste with salt and pepper.
  6. Serve: Serve the sancocho in large bowls and garnish with the chopped cilantro. Serve with the hot bell pepper sauce on the side.
