This bright and herbaceous stew is loaded with fresh flavor. By adding the cilantro and lime juice after cooking, the stew maintains its tangy and vibrant flavors, which would otherwise be muted if added to at the start of cooking. Serve this stew with an array of toppings such as sliced radishes, sour cream, tortilla chips, or sliced avocado.
