I'm posting this for safe keeping. I got this recipe from my step-mom. She didn't cook much but she'd make this now and then and I remember thinking I'd died and gone to heaven. I have been making it for myself for too many years to count. It's easy and always a crowd pleaser. It's great served with warmed tortillas and a garnish of sour cream. Do not leave out the turmeric--it makes this dish. It alway makes the BEST leftovers.

I've tried many chicken rancho recipes, but this one is by far the best. The secret is in the sauce, which is made with a combination of tomatoes, chilies, and spices. It's the perfect balance of sweet, sour, and savory.
