Start by preparing all the necessary ingredients for this delicious recipe that combines full-flavored aromas. Take a medium onion, peel it, and chop it finely. Choose a fresh garlic clove, which you will crush or finely chop to release its aroma. Wash a few ripe and juicy tomatoes, then dice them, preparing them to be added to the aromatic mixture.
In a large skillet, heat a little olive oil over medium heat. Once the oil is hot, add the chopped onion and garlic. Sauté them for 5-7 minutes until the onion becomes translucent and starts to take on a slight golden hue. This is the stage where the flavors intensify, and your kitchen will be filled with a delicious fragrance. After the onion and garlic have sautéed, add the diced tomatoes, the two tablespoons of sugar, and the cinnamon stick.
Mix the ingredients well and let them simmer over low heat for about 10 minutes, allowing the tomatoes to release their juice and combine with the other flavors. This is the moment when the sugar will help balance the acidity of the tomatoes, and the cinnamon will add a subtle note of warmth and complexity. After the mixture has simmered and thickened slightly, it’s time to add the chicken. Choose pieces of breast or thighs, cleaned and cut into suitable pieces.
Pour 2-3 cups of water over the meat to cover the ingredients. Cover the skillet and let everything simmer over medium heat for 30-40 minutes. Check occasionally and stir, ensuring that the chicken cooks evenly. When the meat is well-cooked and tender, prepare the starch: dissolve it in a small amount of cold water. Once you have a smooth paste, add the mixture to the skillet and stir to thicken the sauce.
Let it boil for a final time, and your dish will be ready to serve. You can garnish it with fresh herbs, such as parsley or dill, and serve it alongside a side of rice or mashed potatoes. This recipe will not only delight your taste buds but also bring a touch of warmth and comfort to every meal. Enjoy it with your loved ones and savor every bite!
