Инструкции
- Heat the oil in a thick saucepan. Add chicken and fry on medium-hi heat until slightly browned all over. About 5 minutes. Remove the chicken to a staging bowl or plate.
- Add the onions to the pan, stir for a 3-4 minutes. Add the garlic and saute, until onion has softened a little, another 1-2 minutes.
- Add the chilli flakes, coriander and fenugreek*, stir for a few seconds to release the aromas. Add the tomatoes, fresh chicken stock and wine together with the bay leaves. Season with salt an pepper.
- Bring to a simmer, cover the saucepan with a lid and cook for 45 minutes (or more, if you wish), stirring every now and then, until the sauce is reduced to a thick glossy sauce. (I found it took about 1 hour 30 minutes to reduce the sauce. Alternatively, add a little cornstarch or flour mixed with water and stir into the pot.
- Remove the bay leaves and add the fresh herbs. Stir and cover for 10 minutes, so the flavors can infuse. Season again, if necessary.
- Serve with boiled rice, bulgur, or potatoes and garnish with lemon slices.
- If you can get hold of the Georgian spicy relish, adjika, then use this one instead of the chili flakes (a tablespoon or two, depending on your taste).
