How to Make Stew Colombia Sancocho Antioqueo

  1. In a large (8-quart) pot, combine 8 cups of water, 1 lb beef chuck (cut into 2-inch cubes), 1 lb pork shoulder (cut into 2-inch cubes), 1 lb boneless, skinless chicken thighs (cut into 2-inch pieces), 8 oz chorizo sausage (sliced), 2 tbsp olive oil, 4 green onions (roughly chopped), 1 tbsp ground cumin, ½ cup chopped fresh cilantro, ½ cup chopped fresh parsley, 2 tsp salt, 1 tsp black pepper, and 1 tbsp Goya seasoning.
  2. Bring the mixture to a boil over high heat. Reduce heat to medium-low, stir well, cover, and simmer for 45 minutes.
  3. Add 2 cups of fresh corn kernels (cut from the cob) and 2 ripe plantains (peeled and cut into 1-inch thick rounds).
  4. Bring to a boil again, then reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer for 30 minutes.
  5. Add 2 large potatoes (peeled and cubed) and 1 cup shredded carrots.
  6. Bring to a boil, taste and adjust seasoning as needed. Cover and simmer for another 30 minutes over medium-low heat.
  7. Finally, add 1.5 lbs yuca (peeled and cut into 1-inch thick rounds).
  8. Bring to a boil one last time, cover, and cook for 15-20 minutes, or until the yuca is tender.
