During one of my trips to the mainland my sister and I decided to make a Fricasé de Pollo based 'sort of' on the following recipe, but we made such a huge amount that we made some allowances and added more liquid (chicken stock, beer and 1 whole bottle of Chilean white wine) and used only chicken legs and thighs.  Instead of the green bell peppers, we used red, yellow and orange bells.  We did add raisins as my mom used to do.
