Directions

  1. Mix water, lime juice, olive oil, garlic, soy sauce, salt, and liquid smoke for marinade together in a large, resealable plastic bag. Stir in cayenne and black pepper. Add chicken and let marinate in the refrigerator, at least 2 hours, to overnight.

  2. Remove chicken from the marinade and shake off excess. Discard the remaining marinade.

  3. Heat vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add chicken and cook and stir until just golden, 5 to 7 minutes. Add onion, calabaza, yellow squash, and zucchini, cook and stir until squash are slightly tender, 7 to 10 minutes. Add corn, tomato sauce, chicken broth, tomato, garlic powder, cumin, black pepper, and salt, stir well.

  4. Cover, reduce heat to medium-low, and let simmer for 30 minutes, stirring once halfway through the cooking.
