Preparation of Chicken in Sauce in Pan

  • Before cooking the chicken, burn its feathers by flaming it over the stove, then wash and dry it.

  • Put two tablespoons of olive oil in a pan and, once hot, brown the chicken on all sides.

  • Meanwhile, peel the onion and cut it into rings about 0.39 inches. Add it to the chicken and stir, browning it a little. Put the lid on and let it cook for a few minutes.

  • Season with salt, pepper, oregano, and chili pepper. Blanch the tomatoes and peel, cutting them into pieces (otherwise use canned peeled chopped tomatoes or pulp).

  • Add the tomatoes to the chicken, stir and also add the water. Cover and let it cook for about 30 minutes.

  • When the chicken is almost cooked, take it out of the pan, keeping it warm. Add the potatoes to the sauce, previously peeled, washed, dried, and sliced.

  • Salt, stir, and cover, cooking with the lid on until they are almost tender, adding more water if necessary.

  • Sprinkle with grated cheese, cover with the chicken, and let everything cook for another 5-10 minutes, just enough time to melt the cheese.

  • Once cooking is complete, turn off the heat and serve this succulent Chicken in Sauce in Pan, drizzling it with cooking liquid.

  • Enjoy your meal!
