## Savory Chicken and Vegetable Medley in Tomato Sauce with Baked Potatoes
This dish features chicken enriched with vegetables and simmered in tomato sauce, offering a delightful taste that pairs excellently with rice, baked or boiled potatoes, polenta, or mashed potatoes. It is an ideal meal for a Sunday family lunch. In this recipe, I incorporated vegetables such as spring onions, onion, garlic, peppers, zucchini, tomato paste, and potatoes. For the meat, I used chicken thighs, meticulously trimmed of excess fat and skin. Alternatively, chicken drumsticks or white meat can be used according to preference. The spices included are turmeric, cumin, sweet ground pepper, salt, pepper, thyme, and parsley. I opted to bake the potatoes separately in the oven as a complement to the dish. However, rice, mashed potatoes, or polenta also make excellent accompaniments. You can find the recipes on my website; the link is provided in the description and below in the notifications. Let us prepare this exquisite and delicious dish together by following the recipe.

(I chose oven-baked potatoes for this dish, but if you want, you can make mashed potatoes, rice or boiled potatoes.)
Put 500 ml of water in a small pot and add one soup cube, wait for it to boil, then turn off the heat.
Preparation Chicken stew:
Cut and prepare all the vegetables and spices as described for the chicken stew.
Clean, wash and dry the chicken meat with a towel. If you want, you can remove the skin and excess fat, I removed the fat and left the one part of the skin because it will give a good taste!
