          SOUTH AMERICAN STYLE POTATO PLATTER

          Potatoes and Chicken:
          6 c. chicken broth
          6 med. potatoes, scrubbed, cut into 1 inch chunks
          2 lemons, halved
          3 jalapeno peppers, quartered lengthwise
          1 t. ground cumin
          1/2 lb. boned and skinned chicken breast halves
          1 bunch cilantro

          SALSA AND ACCOMPANIMENTS:
          2 c. diced tomatoes
          1/4 c. diced mild green chilies
          1 T. chopped cilantro
          1 T. white wine vinegar
          1/4 t. salt
          1/4 t. pepper
          3 hard cooked eggs, quartered
          1 red bell pepper, julienned
          1 c. pimento stuffed olives
          6 whole green onions

          In a large Dutch oven or saucepan, combine broth,
          potatoes, lemons, cumin and jalapeno peppers.  Bring to
          a boil, reduce heat and simmer for 8 minutes.  Add
          chicken and simmer for about 7 minutes longer until the
          potatoes are just tender and the chicken is cooked.
          Remove from the heat and add cilantro to the saucepan.

          Cool potatoes and chicken in broth for 30 minutes.  Make
          the salsa in a small bowl by combining tomatoes, chilies,
          cilantro, vinegar, salt and pepper.  Drain the potatoes
          and the chicken, reserving 1 cup of the broth.  Mound
          potatoes in the center of a large platter.  Shred chicken
          and arrange on platter along with remaining
          accompaniments.  Pour 1/2 cup broth over the potatoes.

          Serve remaining broth on the side.  Serve immediately
          with salsa on the side.
