Chicken And Plantain Stew - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    1 lb chicken breast halve, boneless, skinless, trimmed and diced to 1/2 inch pieces
    1 medium onion, diced
    1 large fresh tomato, diced with juices (about 2 cups)
    2 medium garlic cloves, chopped
    1 teaspoon olive oil
    2 plantains, firm, yellow, peeled and thinly sliced (about 2 cups)
    1/2 cup dry white wine
    1 teaspoon spanish paprika, sweet smoked
    1 teaspoon ground cumin
    1 teaspoon dried oregano
    1 cup chicken broth, homemade (no-salt-added)
    kosher salt, to taste
Preparation
    Heat the oil in a large saucepan or medium Dutch oven over medium-high heat, swirling to coat the bottom of the pan or pot.
    Add the chicken, onion and garlic; cook for about 7 minutes, stirring often, so the onion softens and the chicken loses its raw look.
    Stir in the tomato, wine, paprika, cumin, oregano and broth; increase the heat to high and bring to a boil, then reduce the heat to medium-low, cover and cook for about 10 minutes. The chicken should be cooked through.
    Add the plantain slices; cover and cook for 10 minutes or until the plantains are tender and fully cooked. Taste, and season with salt if needed.
    Divide among individual bowls. Serve hot.
