Stewed chicken with green peas

Peas will be an unusual addition to chicken, but it's very tasty! What could be more banal than chicken? However, I accidentally stumbled upon an unusual culinary recipe of Bulgarian cuisine. It is from the book by N. Sotirov "Modern Cooking". Chicken with peas is easy to cook, but it tastes just amazing.

    Ready dish

The recipe suggests taking a chicken carcass and cutting it into portions. I take chicken parts - thighs or shins - and fry in vegetable oil until golden brown. I take out the chicken. In the same oil, lightly fry the finely chopped onion, add flour and a little red pepper. Next, it is suggested to add peeled, finely chopped tomatoes, but I don't like tomatoes, so I add 1 tablespoon of tomato paste. Pour hot water, put the pieces of chicken, salt to taste and cook until the meat is soft, about half an hour. Add green peas, not canned, but fresh or frozen and cook for another 15-20 minutes. The chicken turns out to be very tender. I serve it with some kind of side dish. When serving, you can sprinkle with finely chopped herbs.
