  • 2 cup sliced onion
  • 4 minced garlic cloves
  • 2 cup chopped mushrooms
  • 1 cup chicken broth
  • 2 tbsp grounded ancho chili pepper
  • 2 cup thinly sliced red sweet pepper
  • 2 tsp of kosher salt

  • 4 tbsp unsalted butter
  • 1 tsp chopped cilantro
  • 1 cup tomato salsa

Instructions

  • Serve hot with a side of tomato salsa for extra flavor.

• You can substitute sweet potatoes for the potatoes if desired.
• You can also add other vegetables such as zucchini, carrots, or mushrooms.
• To make the dish spicier, add some chili powder or diced jalapeños.
