- 4 pieces Chicken (drumsticks or thighs)
- 3 ears Corn on the cob (cut into thirds)
- 2 pieces Green plantains
- 1 pound Yuca (cassava), peeled and cut into chunks
- 4 pieces Yellow potatoes, peeled and halved
- 2 pieces Sweet potatoes, peeled and cut into large chunks
- 1 large Onion, finely chopped
- 2 medium Tomatoes, finely chopped
- 3 pieces Garlic cloves, minced
- 4 stalks Scallions, chopped
- 1 cup Cilantro, chopped
- 1 teaspoon Cumin
- 2 teaspoons Salt
- 1 teaspoon Black pepper
- 2 tablespoons Vegetable oil
- 10 cups Water
- 2 pieces Avocado (for serving, optional)

Instructions
In a large stockpot, heat the vegetable oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion, garlic, tomatoes, scallions, and cumin. Sauté for 5-7 minutes until fragrant and softened.
Add the bone-in beef, pork, and chicken to the pot. Season with salt and black pepper. Sear the meats for 5-8 minutes until lightly browned.
Add the 10 cups of water to the pot. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat to low and simmer for about 30 minutes, skimming off any foam that forms on the surface.
Add the corn, green plantains, yuca, yellow potatoes, and sweet potatoes to the pot. Stir to combine and ensure all ingredients are submerged in the liquid.
Continue simmering the stew over low heat for another 60-90 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables are tender and the meat is fully cooked and tender.
Taste and adjust the seasoning with additional salt and pepper, if needed. Stir in the chopped cilantro right before serving.
Serve hot in bowls, ensuring each portion contains a mix of meats, vegetables, and broth. Accompany with slices of avocado and a side of white rice, if desired.
