  • Total Time: 40 minutes
  • Yield: 6 servings

Ingredients

  • 1 Tbsp olive oil
  • 1 yellow onion, diced
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 2 Tbsp tomato paste
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/4 tsp smoked paprika
  • 1/4 tsp garlic powder
  • 1/4 tsp freshly cracked black pepper
  • 2 (14.5 oz) cans diced tomatoes
  • 1 cup frozen corn kernels
  • 1 cup frozen lima beans
  • 1 lb Yukon gold potatoes, peeled and diced
  • 1/2 cup BBQ sauce
  • 4 cups cooked shredded chicken
  • 3 cups chicken broth

Instructions

  1. Heat olive oil in a large pot or Dutch oven over medium heat. Add onion and garlic; sauté until translucent.
  2. Stir in tomato paste, salt, smoked paprika, garlic powder, and black pepper. Cook 30–45 seconds.
  3. Add diced tomatoes, corn, lima beans, potatoes, and BBQ sauce. Stir to combine.
  4. Add shredded chicken and chicken broth; stir again.
  5. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to medium-low and simmer about 20 minutes, or until potatoes are tender.
  6. Adjust seasoning and mash a few potatoes if you prefer a thicker stew.
  7. Serve hot, optionally garnished with parsley, with cornbread or crusty bread.

Notes

  • Use fire-roasted tomatoes for extra smoky flavor.
  • Swap lima beans for green beans if preferred.
  • Mash a few potatoes to naturally thicken the stew.
  • Add cayenne or extra BBQ sauce for more heat or sweetness.
