Chicken in a pot
Description
The dish is prepared without unnecessary complications. It is very important not to overcook the chicken, as the meat is not particularly fatty. Chicken is most commonly fried or baked in the oven. To enhance the flavor, various vegetables, spices, and aromatic herbs are used. Chicken cooked in clay pots turns out very tender and juicy, thanks to marinating it beforehand in kefir with herbs. This meat can be served with a potato side dish, vegetable salads, or simply with vegetables. It can also be served directly in the pots with a piece of bread. The finished dish is ready to be served.
