Recipe by Yvonne Ortíz-Haney The Puerto Rican dish asopao de pollo, a cross between soup and paella, is an easy, hearty one-dish meal featuring juicy chicken thighs, diced lean ham, rice, and assorted seasonings.

Ingredients

1 teaspoon dried oregano 1/4 teaspoon salt 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper 2 garlic cloves, minced 10 chicken thighs (about 3 pounds), skinned 2 tablespoons Annatto Oil or olive oil 1 1/2 cups Sofrito 3/4 cup diced plum tomato 1 1/2 cups uncooked medium-grain rice 2/3 cup dry white wine 1/2 cup diced lean ham (about 2 ounces) 1 (4.4-ounce) bottle alcaparrado (such as Goya), drained, or 3/4 cup pitted green olives and 1/4 cup capers 4 cups water 1 (15.75-ounce) can fat-free, less-sodium chicken broth 1 cup frozen green peas, thawed

Instructions

Combine the first 4 ingredients in a small bowl. Sprinkle chicken with the oregano mixture. Heat Annatto Oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the chicken; cook 8 minutes, turning once. Reduce heat to medium. Add Sofrito and tomato; cook 3 minutes, stirring frequently. Add rice, wine, ham, and alcaparrado; cook 1 minute, stirring constantly. Add the water and chicken broth; bring to a boil. Cover, reduce heat, and simmer for 20 minutes. Stir in the peas, and cook for 5 minutes or until the rice is tender.
