Chicken is a common food in many families. It is affordable, economical, quick to prepare, does not require lengthy preliminary processing, and it turns out quite tasty. All its parts are suitable for cooking: fillets, wings, thighs and drumsticks. They are fried, boiled, baked or stewed. Each method of heat treatment is good and tasty in its own way. But, in my opinion, when stewing, the meat turns out to be the most tender, which just melts in the mouth. Therefore, it is this cooking option that I want to share with you. Moreover, it is prepared as easy as shelling pears, you do not need to pickle anything, and there are a minimum of ingredients.
