6 boneless chicken thighs
2 tsp salt
1/2 tsp black pepper

2 ears fresh sweet corn, husked and cut into 2-inch pieces
1 large green plantain

Chicken stock - enough to cover

Season chicken, beef and pork with salt & pepper. In a pot on medium high heat with oil, sear your chicken first. Remove from the pan and sear pork & beef. Once browned remove. In the same pot, sauté, onions & bell peppers until softened. Add garlic and mix for a minute until fragrant. Pour tomato sauce, cumin, oregano and bay leaves. Mix for a few minutes. Add proteins back in. Along with all your vegetables. Add enough chicken stock to almost cover (if using pressure cooker) — or cover completely if cooking on stovetop. Pressure cook for 30 minutes.
STOVETOP METHOD ⬇️
Make sofrito, add proteins then fill pot with enough water to cover. Simmer for an hour until everything is tender. Then add root vegetables first simmer for 15 minutes. Then squash, plantains & corn simmer until tender.

·2023-8-16AJIACO CUBANO 🇨🇺: Ajiaco Cubano is a hearty and comforting soup / stew that is a staple in Cuban cuisine. This is traditionally made with a combination of meat such as, beef, chicken and pork, corn, and root vegetables such as dasheen/cocoyam, cassava plantain and butternut squash along with various spices. What is the protein gap theory this was a myth—one created in the mid-20th century to push high-protein diets. Back then, so-called ‘experts’ incorrectly claimed protein was the key to fighting malnutrition in developing countries. Studies later proved that people didn’t need as much protein as they thought. The real issue wasn’t protein deficient—it was caloric deficiency! The western word took heed of this and many marketing campaigns ran with this. This was turned into a goldmine, convincing us we needed more meat, dairy, and protein supplements to survive. The truth? Plants provide all the protein you need, and protein deficiency is virtually non-existent for anyone eating enough of balanced diet. 🌱 meat replacement 🎃 Pumpkin / Butternut squash 🌱 Cassava 🍄🟫 oyster mushrooms and shiitake 🫑 Bell pepper (red and green) 🌱 yam 🧅 Onions 🧄 Garlic 🌶 Scotch Bonnet pepper 🌿Tomato paste 🌿Tomato sauce 🍝 plantain 🍠 sweet potato 🌽 corn Seasoning: veg broth, salt, black pepper, cayenne pepper, oregano, cumin 1.
