  • Directions

    Place chicken, onion, tomato, carrot, and 2 cloves garlic into a large pot. Add water to cover, then bring to a boil. Skim and discard the foam that floats to the surface. Reduce heat to medium-low; simmer uncovered until chicken is tender, 30 to 40 minutes.

    Place chicken into a bowl and shred it into strips as thick as a pencil; set aside. Strain and reserve cooking liquid; discard vegetables.

    Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add onion, bell peppers, and minced garlic. Cook and stir until vegetables have softened, 3 to 4 minutes. Stir in tomato purée, white wine, chicken, and enough of the reserved broth to create a thick sauce. Season with cumin, salt, and pepper. Simmer until sauce is slightly reduced and coats chicken, about 5 minutes.
