Chicken with tomatoes is a daily dish. The chicken is cut into small pieces and stewed with tomatoes and sour cream. The finished chicken is very soft and juicy. Chicken with sour cream is a traditional, win-win combination, and the addition of tomatoes gives the chicken fillet a slightly fresh, fresh flavor. In addition, the finished dish looks very bright and appetizing.
Composition:
- Chicken fillet - 600-800 g
- Tomatoes - 2 pieces
- Sour cream - 200-250 g
- Garlic - 3 cloves
- Salt - to taste (about 1 tsp)
- Ground pepper - to taste
- Dried basil - to taste
Preparation:
Wash the chicken breast and remove the fat. Cut the chicken into small cubes, this way it will soak the sauce best.
Peel the tomatoes and cut into cubes. For easy skinning of tomatoes, make a cruciform cut at the top of each tomato and pour boiling water over the tomatoes for 5 minutes. In the absence of fresh tomatoes, you can use tomatoes in your own juice, it is these tomatoes that I added to the dish.
Peel the garlic and cut into small cubes. It is not necessary to cut especially finely, since it can burn in a frying pan.
Heat some vegetable oil in a skillet and add the chopped garlic. Cook the garlic for 2-3 minutes to add flavor to the oil. Never overdo the garlic, otherwise it will burn and give an unpleasant aftertaste to the dish.
Put the chopped chicken over the garlic and fry the chicken fillet over high heat for 5 minutes with constant stirring. The fillet should change color from pink to white so that all juices are sealed inside.
Put the chopped tomatoes to the whitened chicken, stir and leave to simmer under a closed lid over low heat for 10 minutes.
At this time, combine sour cream with 1/3 cup of hot boiled water and stir. This is done so that when added to hot chicken, sour cream does not curl. After 10 minutes, add sour cream to the chicken and tomatoes. Add salt, pepper and dried basil immediately. Mix everything gently and leave on the stove for another 5 minutes under a closed lid.
- 1 kg chicken thighs

How to cook?
Chicken thighs should be washed, put in a bowl (or saucepan), mixed with salt, a mixture of peppers, turmeric and herbs. Spiced meat can be set aside.
In the meantime, the meat is saturated with aromas, you need to have time to prepare the vegetables. Tomatoes need to be kept in boiling water for 3 minutes, after which they will be easily peeled from the skin. Now they need to be cut into pieces, about 3 by 3 centimeters in size. The onions need to be peeled and cut into small pieces.
When all the food has been prepared, it's time to turn on the stove and heat it up with vegetable oil. The thighs need to be slightly squeezed and lowered into the pan. The meat should be fried until half cooked, more precisely, until golden brown, the fire should be reduced, put tomatoes and onions on the chicken. Now it's time to cover the pan and the hostess is free for the next 40 minutes.
It is necessary to simmer until tender, that is, until the moment when the meat will lag behind the bones. The finished chicken pieces should not float in the gravy, they should be covered with it. If the meat is already ready, and there is still a lot of liquid, you just need to leave the pan on the fire without a lid for a few minutes and evaporate the excess moisture. During cooking, the onion will completely dissolve, giving its sharpness to the tomato sauce. Before serving, the cooked meat should be sprinkled with chopped herbs.
What to eat with?
So cooked chicken goes well with mashed potatoes or boiled rice and fresh vegetable salad. Delicate chicken under a bright red thick sauce interspersed with fresh herbs looks very impressive on the festive table. Tomatoes can be bought in the store all year round, but real ripe tomatoes can only be obtained in season, so in winter it is better to use homemade tomato juice. And instead of fresh vegetable salad, serve the bell pepper lecho.
If we are not talking about a festive feast, then it is quite possible to serve a chicken with any porridge that the household loves - and a delicious dinner is guaranteed.
Which pan to take?
Advice from. To stew chicken deliciously, you need a high-quality thick-walled frying pan with a lid. The pan should warm up evenly and keep the temperature for a long time. Perfect for a diameter of at least 30 centimeters and with a wall height of 3-4 centimeters.
