Girl god bless you! Best pollo guisado I've ever had and I'm Hispanic from Puerto Rico. You outdid yourself! Thank you!!!

The term “Latino” was more of a stigma and/or derogatory toward the Africans and Natives that the FRENCH in “Latin America” started, used as a separation mark. It meant you belonged to the French (Non British or Spanish). The term “Hispanic” was designed to diminish your Native and/or African ancestry. You can pour sprinkles on shit all you want, it’s still SHIT and will never magically turn into a cake, And those of us that know this are the ones offended by the sneakiness and ignorance.

[@josealberto19]

I agree it's amazing I love it

[@user-md7dk9cn8e]

My husband is Puerto Rican and I’ve made it my goal to learn Puerto Rican cooking! He can’t live without it. I’ve made this recipe multiple times and every time he says it smells like home. It was also mother-in-law approved, and our toddler likes it as well. Thank you for the easy recipe!

[@MARCM0DE]

You’re a great wife

As a Puerto Rican myself I can say you have my approval 100 percent! Reminds me of the pollo guisado my mom's used to make. She passed away 6 years ago and I cook for myself now so this will be my next dish. Thank you for the recipe.

[@CookingWithTammy.]

I know it’s been 6 years since your mom’s passing, but u still have my condolences Tony. Continue to stay strong!! Thanks so much for taking the time out to comment.⭐️

[@tonyvalentine5968]

[@Jjay257]

What approval… she’s Puerto Rican!!! SMH

[@vanksism]

Tammy - I’m new here but I’ve tried your recipe twice and each time it’s been 5 stars with the family. The tomato sauce, cilantro and the lime is a cut above everyone else’s recipe to use tomato paste. It tastes more like the stuff you get from our Puerto Rican stores that are soooo yum. And I’m originally from the Bronx so I had a really good comparison gauge!

[@Jaileneejj0121]

This just made my day, my grandma who’s no longer here always made this and I never got to learn how, Thank you. 🥺🙏

[@CookingWithTammy.]

Grandma’s are the best!!

Reminds me of my childhood! My mom is Puerto Rican. I never learned how to make Alcapurrias.. Can you please do a tutorial on that one day?

[@CookingWithTammy.]

Most definitely LaToya🤗

As you were talking on how to put all the ingredients together I would pause often as I poured all the ingredients in the pot, and it’s looking so good, and the aroma has filled the entire house with the sweet smell of Puerto Rico!!! (From Anasco, PR, La playa), and thank you!!!❤❤❤
