Over the holiday, my oven turned off. I had all my food prepared and ready to pop in the oven and we were expecting guests for lunch as well.
Fortunately my stove burners were lit. I needed to improvise quickly and change my menu.
I made this recipe for the first time and it came out great! A definite keeper.
Ingredients
1 chicken, skinned
3 onions, thinly sliced
1 tablespoon fat, I used chicken fat
1 6 oz can of tomatoe paste
1 cup broth or water
Salt, pepper and fresh garlic to taste
Instructions
Sauté onions in fat until cooked. I used chicken fat, as I happened to have some leftover from another dish that I made over the holiday. It was a definite flavor enhancer!
Add chicken to pot. Stir tomato paste and broth to blend together and pour over chicken. I had leftover chicken soup.
Add spices.
Bring to a boil and simmer until done.
This can be made in the oven, crockpot or pressure cooker, 7 minutes to pressure.
