Served after most parties and also an ideal Sunday meal, sancocho is a Colombian chicken stew that can also be made with beef or pork. Originally from the El Valle region, it used to be made exclusively with hens. It is a hearty stew with the addition of potatoes, corn, and plantains. Traditionally, white rice, spicy aji sauce, and avocado slices are served on the side. The thick broth is very satiating and could easily feed a whole family, and what's best is that it can be cooked in just one pot. Some like to top the dish with fresh coriander, onions, and a squeeze of lime juice in order to enhance the flavors even further. Found throughout Latin America, its name stems from the Spanish word sancochar , which translates to parboil . Although the ingredients are basic, they all merge together to develop delicious flavors and aromas, and the best part just may be the corn – which has been soaking up all the flavors in its kernels.
