Expert Tips

Serve this stew topped with shredded Mexican cheese blend and chopped fresh cilantro leaves for an extra-special touch.

Frozen small whole onions, also called pearl onions, are loaded with flavor and are so convenient to use. If you don’t have them on hand, you can substitute 1/2 cup chopped onion.

I made this meal for my family tonight and it was a huge hit! Instead of using the onions, I used new potatoes cut into 4ths. I did use onion, just not the bag of onions the recipe called for. Great meal on a cold night.
