- It's 1 packet of Goya brand sazon con azafran (If you don't have Goya sazon, see last step for substitution).

Easy Cuban Style Chicken Stew step by step
- In a large Dutch oven or deep saute pan (at least 10"), saute the onion, bell pepper and garlic in the oil over medium high heat for about 3 minutes, or until the onions start to turn translucent..
- Add the rest of the ingredients except for the peas, stir to distribute evenly, cover with the lid askew and bring the stew up to a boil over high heat. (Should take 5 to 7 minutes.).
- Once the stew has been boiling for 1 minute, give it a good stir, lower the heat to medium low, and simmer for 45 minutes with the lid on askew, stirring occasionally. A good simmer will produce gentle movement under the surface of the liquid, but no splatter..
- Adjust the seasoning if needed (you might like a little more salt), add the peas, turn the heat up to medium, and simmer another 5 to 10 minutes with the lid off, stirring occasionally..
- Serve with your starch of choice. The stewing liquid, and lots of it, is delicious over plain steamed rice. Enjoy! :).
- GOYA Sazon substitute: 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt, 1/2 teaspoon sugar, 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder, 1/2 teaspoon cumin, 1/2 teaspoon turmeric and, if you have it, a pinch of saffron or 1 teaspoon of ground achiote (annatto).
