Ingredients

  • 1¼ pounds boneless chicken, cubed or 2 pounds cut up chicken parts with bone and skin
  • 2 medium onions, cut into wedges
  • 1 green pepper, cut into strips
  • 1 x 1 pound 13-ounce can whole tomatoes
  • ¼ cup Worcestershire sauce

  • 1 teaspoon ground thyme
  • 1 teaspoon dried rosemary
  • ½ teaspoon ground black pepper
  • ½ pound cooked, peeled and de-veined shrimp
  • 3 cups hot cooked rice

  1. Combine chicken, onions, green pepper, tomatoes, Worcestershire sauce, mustard, garlic, thyme, rosemary, black pepper and shrimp.
  2. Cover and bring to a boil. Simmer 45 minutes or until chicken is tender and flavors mellow together. ("Bone-in" chicken will need about 1 hour until it is falling-apart tender).
