Protein and Vegetables

- 1 cup corn kernels
- 1 cup carrots, sliced
Liquids and Flavorings
- 2 cups tomato sauce
- 1 chipotle pepper in adobo, minced
- 2 cups chicken broth

Instructions
- Combine Ingredients: In a large pot, add the cubed chicken breast, tomato sauce, minced chipotle pepper in adobo, corn kernels, sliced carrots, chicken broth, and season with salt and pepper to taste. Mix well to combine all ingredients evenly.
- Simmer: Place the pot on the stove over medium heat and bring the mixture to a gentle simmer. Reduce heat to low and cover the pot. Let the stew simmer for 25 to 30 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the chicken is fully cooked and tender, and the vegetables have softened.

- Adjust the amount of chipotle pepper for your preferred level of spiciness.
- Serve with warm tortillas or crusty bread to complement the stew.
