Instructions
- Heat a medium sized pot over medium high heat. Add the olive oil, sweet potato, carrots, celery and onion. Cook for 5 minutes, stirring, until vegetables begin to soften and brighten. Add minced garlic, chili powder, cumin, salt, and paprika and cook for 30 seconds, stirring. (Don't burn the garlic, so stirring is important here!)
- Add the tomato sauce and chicken stock. Stir to incorporate. Add the cooked, diced chicken, stir to combine and reduce heat to medium low. Cover with a lid
- Cook on low to medium-low for 20 minutes until flavors have blended, stirring occasionally. Add hot sauce and stir. Remove from heat and serve with your choice of toppings.
Farm Girl Tips
The amount of hot sauce used is entirely up to you. We tried 3 tablespoon and that was a little too spicy for us. 2 tablespoon seemed just right for our taste buds.
We like Franks Red Hot Sauce but you can substitute your favorite.
