Sprinkle with garlic and sliced jalapenos. Cover and cook over low heat 30 minutes. Check; if more liquid is needed, add water or chicken broth. Cover, cook 15 minutes longer or until chicken and vegetables are tender. Do not overcook. Serve on a warmed platter with vegetables encircling chicken. If desired, offer a dish of chopped fresh jalapenos for the fire eaters in your crowd. Makes 4 servings.
