Spanish Garbanzo Gumbo

Total Time: 2 hrs 15 mins Preparation Time: 15 mins Cook Time: 2 hrs

Ingredients

  • 1 chicken breast
  • 1 lb shrimp
  • 1/4 cup goya mojo juice
  • 2 tomatoes, chopped (or 1/2 cup of chunky salsa)
  • 1/2 cup bell pepper
  • 1/2 cup onion, chopped

  • 1/4 cup carrot, shredded
  • 2 (15 ounce) cans garbanzo beans
  • 2 cups water
  • 3 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 ounce chicken gravy

Recipe

  • 1 place pot on stove with the olive oil on medium high.
  • 2 rinse chicken breast to clean, chop into bit sized cubes and place in pot with heated olive oil to sear (for about 5 minutes). stir to keep chicken from burning and to sear all sides of the cubes. (if you are substituting the shrimp with lamb, increase olive oil to 4 tablespoons and add the lamb at the same time you add the chicken. you will need to sear the mixture a bit longer as well--searing for 8-10 minutes.).
  • 3 add water.
  • 4 chop vegetables, grate carrrot and add to pot. a flavorful substitution for the tomatoes is 1/2 (to 2/3) cup of salsa.
  • 5 add mojo.
  • 6 drain and rinse garbonzo beans and add to pot.
  • 7 bring to a boil, then reduce heat to medium and cover pot for 30 minutes.
  • 8 reduce heat to low and allow to simmer for at least one hour. the longer soup simmers, the softer the garbanzo beans will become.
  • 9 clean/devein shrimp and add to pot 15 minutes (if fresh) to 30 minutes (if frozen) before serving. (i shouldn't have to say this, but just in case -- remember to remove the tails and any exoskeleton from the shrimp.).
  • 10 *optional: add gravy packet just prior to serving to thicken. you can also use flour or corn starch to thicken, but i like using the gravy pack as it adds a bit more chicken flavor to the recipe. (also, if you are using lamb, a lamb gravy packet rather than chicken is a delicious way to go.).
  • 11 serve.
