Recipe



Boil chicken with carrot peelings, onion skins, celery tops, bay leaves and salt for a half an hour. Reduce by one third. Strain stock. Reserve. Allow chicken to cool. Pull chicken meat from the bone and chop into large chunks. Skim stock reserving 1 tbsp. chicken fat.

Sauté onions, celery, carrots, and cumin in reserved chicken fat slowly until nicely browned. Puree dried Ancho chiles with 2 cups of chicken stock until very smooth and thick. Add garlic to sautéed vegetables and cook 2 minutes. Add tomatoes and sauté five minutes more. Add stock, Ancho puree and onion powder and simmer for 20 minutes.

Add chicken and beans, simmer for an additional twenty minutes. Add salt and Iguana Radioactive to taste.
