My Mom made this on weeknights she sometimes used a fresh Hatch green chili for heat or fresh Pablano pepper for sweetness, it's quick easy and sooo yummy! Great with a tossed salad and french bread. I lower salt by using reduced sodium broth or bouillon and season steaks with Mrs. Dash any flavor.
