WELCOME TO MIX IT UP MONDAY WITH MAD DASH MIXES
WEEK 34
WHAT ARE WE MIXIN’ UP THIS WEEK?
This week, I am sharing a very quick Chicken Chile Verde recipe. Chicken Chile Verde is a dish from northern Mexican. All you need is a packet of Chicken Chile Verde Mix from our friends at Mad Dash Mixes and 3 other ingredients! In roughly 40 minutes, you will have a delicious entree to serve your family!
Let’s Get to Mixin’!
To make this delicious Mexican Stew, you will need the Chicken Chile Verde mix from Mad Dash Mixes, chicken broth or water, diced potatoes and shredded chicken. The recipe calls for 5 cups of water but I used a combination of chicken broth and water, similar to the recipe my friend Leslie prepared on her blog Feet under My Table. I think using Chicken broth gives the stew a bit more body or thickness.
The Steps
After combining the seasoning mix with the liquid, diced potatoes & shredded chicken, bring the stew to a boil and then reduce the heat to low and simmer for 20 minutes. It is that simple! Please remember to stir the soup occasionally while it is simmering.
After the stew has simmered for 20 minutes, you are ready to ladle it into a bowl, cup or mug. Feel free to be creative with toppers for your stew. Sour cream, shredded cheese and guacamole are some suggestions. Tortilla chips or corn chips could also be used as a topper. I love to add the blue corn chips for a bit of color.

Another Serving Idea
The stew can be served with a side of rice, black beans or red beans, or warm tortillas. The next time I make it, I am going to serve it with a side of the pineapple salsa to add a bit of spicy sweetness!
