Sancocho
- 3 each corn yellow, cut into 3 pieces
- 12 cups water
- 1 whole chicken usually you can get it cut by the people who work in the meat section at the supermarket
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 2 each plantains green, peeled and cut crosswise into 2 inch pieces
- 2 each chicken bouillon cubes optional, I usually use one
- 6 medium potatoes white, peeled and cut in half
- 1 pound - frozen yuca cut into big pieces
- 1/4 cup cilantro freshly chopped
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper ground
- In a large pot boil the chicken.
- I usually do this because the white foamy stuff that boils to the top I like to take out.
- Once it has been boiled, add corn, chicken bouillon if used, salt and green plantains.
- Bring to a boil, then cover and reduce heat to medium and cook for about 30 to 35 minutes.
- Add the potatoes, yuca and pepper and continue cooking for 30 more minutes or until the yuca and potatoes are fork tender.
- Stir in the cilantro.
- Taste and adjust the seasoning.
- Serve in large soup bowls (this goes really well with rice!)
