Stewed chicken in a frying pan is a multi-variant dish, it can be prepared for every taste using various additives of vegetables and spices.

Use oil with a high smoking temperature for frying! Any oils are useful only until a certain temperature is reached - the point of smoking, at which the oil begins to burn and toxic substances, including carcinogens, are formed in it.
Unrefined oils, with rare exceptions, have a low smoking point. There are a lot of unfiltered organic particles in them, which quickly begin to burn.
Refined oils are more resistant to heating, and their smoking point is higher. If you are going to cook food in the oven, on a frying pan or grill, make sure that you use oil with a high smoking point. The most common of the oils with a high smoking point: refined varieties of sunflower, olive and grape.

So that during the stewing process the sour cream does not curdle and does not delaminate, pre-mix it with a spoonful of flour in a separate bowl, and then add to the pan. You can replace sour cream with cream of any fat content. But remember, the calorie content of the dish depends on the percentage of fat content of the sour cream or cream you use.

Pierce the meat with a knife: if the knife enters easily and the light juice flows, then it is ready, if the juice is pink or red, you need to continue cooking.
