Prepare the soffritto<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Start by finely chopping the onion, carrot and celery. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Brown them in a large saucepan with a drizzle of extra virgin olive oil, over medium heat, until they are well wilted.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>2. Brown the chicken<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Add the chicken pieces and brown them on all sides for about 5-7 minutes, until golden. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Pour in the white wine and let the alcohol evaporate completely.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>3. Add the tomato sauce and potatoes<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Pour the tomato puree, season with salt and pepper and add the potatoes cut into not too small pieces. If you want, you can add a sprig of rosemary or a bay leaf for flavor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Cover with a ladle of hot broth or water, lower the heat and leave to cook with the lid on for about 25 minutes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>4. Add the peas and finish cooking<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Add the peas and continue cooking for another 15-20 minutes, until the potatoes are soft and the chicken is cooked through. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If necessary, add more liquid during cooking to maintain the right level of moisture.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Check the flavor and adjust salt and pepper before serving.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Tips for a perfect result<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>If you prefer a creamier consistency, you can lightly mash some potatoes at the end of cooking.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>For a stronger flavour, you can also use pieces of chicken with the skin, which will make the sauce richer.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>You can replace the peas with green beans or add some green olives for variety.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Stewed chicken is even better if left to rest for a few hours before serving, it will be perfect the next day.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>A balanced and genuine one-dish meal<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This recipe is a complete meal, thanks to the presence of proteins, vegetables and carbohydrates. Accompanied by a slice of rustic bread, it becomes an ideal dish for a quick but nutritious lunch.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Perfect for the colder seasons, but also suitable for spring or summer, if enjoyed at room temperature.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Stewed chicken with potatoes and peas is a great classic of Italian home cooking.
