Spicy Chicken & Bean Stew

Recipe Description

This Spicy Chicken & Bean Stew is a table winner, everytime I serve it. Soft and juicy chicken thighs sautéed with garlic until fragrant and black beans with diced tomatoes and onions to fill the stew.

I use sriracha sauce and cumin to season and spicy the pot and once the chicken is cooked, I finish the flavor off by adding freshly minced cilantro. This stew is just not the same without cilantro!
