Serves:
Ingredients
- 4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 1 onion, diced
- 3 cloves of garlic, minced
- 1 tsp ground cumin
- 1 tsp ground coriander
- 1/2 tsp paprika
- 1/2 tsp cayenne pepper (adjust to taste)
- 2 sweet potatoes, peeled and cubed
- 4 cups chicken broth
- 2 cups fresh spinach leaves
- Salt and pepper, to taste

Instructions
-
Season the chicken breasts with salt and pepper. In a large pot or Dutch oven, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the chicken and cook until browned on both sides. Remove the chicken from the pot and set aside.
-
In the same pot, add the diced onion and minced garlic. Sauté until the onion is softened and translucent.
-
Add the ground cumin, ground coriander, paprika, and cayenne pepper. Stir well to coat the onions and garlic with the spices.
-
Return the cooked chicken breasts to the pot, along with the sweet potato chunks. Pour in the chicken broth and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low and simmer for about 30 minutes, or until the sweet potatoes are tender.
-
Remove the chicken breasts from the pot and shred them using two forks. Return the shredded chicken to the pot.
-
Stir in the fresh spinach leaves and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes, until wilted.
-
Season with salt and pepper, to taste. Serve the stew hot, garnished with fresh cilantro.
