Mexican Chicken Stew is the perfect under-thirty meal for those hectic days when all you want to do is enjoy dinner with the family. Using a few store-bought items, this stew comes together quickly and tastes even better the next day. I like to double the recipe, one for dinner and one to store in my freezer. Knowing a ready-made, comforting stew is tucked away in the freezer makes me feel like super-mom.
