Chef's Notes

The tomato paste in this recipe adds a great richness and depth of flavor, but you can substitute tomato sauce if needed. You can also use an 8 oz. can of tomato sauce in place of the tomato paste. Reduce the amount of chicken or vegetable broth to 1 cup.
The recipe calls for just regular chili powder, not a Mexican-style, spicy or dark variety.
