2 shallots, chopped

no sour cream on the main table. Chiara is dairy-free. Side bowl for the kids if they ask.

Gluten-free if the Sazón (coriander-annatto) and Goya Adobo packets have no wheat. They typically don’t — check the packet. Coconut milk, not dairy.

Morning

Chop peppers, shallots, and sweet potato (or use frozen cubes).
Thighs, coconut milk, peppers, shallots, Sazón, cumin, chile powder, Adobo into the slow cooker. Sweet potato stays out if someone will be home at halfway.

Cooker

Low 8 hours or high 4.
Sweet potatoes halfway if someone is home. Otherwise add them at the start with everything else. Frozen cubes are fine.

Rice

Pot of rice at the end, not in the cooker.

Plate

Stew over rice. Avocado, cilantro, chives, black beans if you want them.
No sour cream on the table as default. Chiara is dairy-free. Kids can have a small bowl on the side.

Family of 5 plates plus Chiara. Don’t put dairy in the pot.

Leftovers

Friday and Saturday dinners are leftover Caribbean. Fridge 3 days. Reheat on the stove. Keep sour cream off the table those nights too if Chiara is still around; otherwise kids can have it on the side.
