“Every country possesses, it seems, the sort of cuisine it deserves, which is to say the sort of cuisine it is appreciative enough to want. I used to think that the notoriously bad cooking of the English was an example to the contrary, and that the English cook the way they do because, through sheer technical deficiency, they had not been able to master the art of cooking. I have discovered to my stupefaction that the English cook that way because that is the way they like it."
~ Waverly Root (1903-1982)

Vegetable cooking spray, as needed
2 whole bone-in chicken breasts - (2 lbs total), skinned, and
cut into quarters
2 medium onions - (12 oz total), sliced
2 large garlic cloves, minced
1 yellow or red bell pepper - (6 oz) seeded, chopped
1 tsp turmeric
1/2 tsp ground cinnamon

2 lb sweet potatoes, peeled, cubed
1 can no-salt-added diced tomatoes - (14 1/2 oz), drained

2 cups fat-free low-sodium canned chicken broth

 

Recipe Instructions:

Lightly spray a covered nonstick pot with cooking spray. Add the chicken and brown over high heat for 2 minutes, turning chicken once. Lower the heat and transfer the chicken to a plate. Set aside.

Add all remaining ingredients to the pot except the reserved chicken pieces. Bring to a simmer and cook for 2 minutes.

“Food for all is a necessity. Food should not be a merchandise, to be bought and sold as jewels are bought and sold by those who have the money to buy. Food is a human necessity, like water and air, it should be available.”
