CHICKEN AND CHORIZO STEW (SLOW COOKER)
Thumbs up & awesome is how my husband described this stew. I served with steamed brown rice, but tortillas or tortilla chips would be good as well. You can vary the amount of spiciness by adjusting the amount of chipotle chile you add. Put the chicken broth and can of tomatoes in the fridge overnight to prevent the chicken from overcooking and getting dry (or reduce cook time). Adapted slightly from Cook's Illustrated Best Make Ahead Recipes.

CHICKEN AND CHORIZO STEW
Adapted from Cooking Light, Jan/Feb 2012. Their recipe was very good, but I felt that it needed a few things, so this is my take on it. Still fairly light, but more flavorful. Their recipe says 4 servings of 1 cup each, but I got far more than that so I'm calling it 6 servings.

Steps:
- Combine broth, water, parsley, garlic, onion, and carrot in a large saucepan over medium high heat. Add chicken breasts, bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer for about 12 minutes, or until chicken is just cooked through.
- Remove chicken from the pot and set aside to cool. Strain the broth to remove the solids, and set aside.
- Once chicken is cool enough to handle, shred into bite sized pieces.
- In the same pan, saute the chorizo over medium high heat for 2 minutes. Add potato, onion, and bell pepper. Cook for 8 minutes, stirring occasionally.
- Add garlic, cumin, salt, saffron, and paprika. Saute for 2 minutes, stirring constantly.
- Add the reserved broth and bring to a simmer. Cook for 12 minutes, stirring occasionally.
- Check the potatoes for doneness, if they are not tender enough, continue to simmer until they are tender.
- Add the shredded chicken, cook until it is heated through.
- Remove from the heat, and stir in the vinegar.
- Ladle into serving bowls, topping with chopped parsley to garnish.
