/4 Cup Water  
Cup Whole kernel corn

Season the chicken pieces with salt and cayenne. In a large cast−iron  
skillet, heat the oil. When the oil is hot, add the chicken and brown,  
cooking for 6 to 8 minutes on each side. Add the onions. Season with salt  
and cayenne. Stirring constantly, wilt and brown the onions, scraping the  
bottom of the pan to loosen any browned particles, about 10 minutes. Add the  
bell peppers and bay leaf. Continue stirring, again scraping the bottom of  
the pot to loosen any browned particles, for about 15 minutes. Add the  
water, cover, and reduce the heat to medium. Stir occasionally and cook for  
about 30 minutes, or until the chicken is tender. Add the corn, peas, and  
mushrooms, cover, and cook for 15 minutes more, stirring occasionally. Add  
the parsley. Remove the bay leaf and serve immediately. This recipe yields 4  
to 6 servings.
