Step 1

Sauté onion, pepper and garlic until tender.
Put in pot
Sauté chicken and ham (if you have time, otherwise just put in pot)

Add tomatoes and their liquid, broth, thyme, parsley chili salt and pepper. I cook over low heat for as long as I can and add rice and hour or two before serving. You can also put the entire mixture into a casserole, cover and bake for 1 1/2 hours.
