Notes

This dish is great served alone or with a side of bread. You can also serve it over rice or mashed potatoes for a more filling meal. Garnish with fresh herbs for a nice touch. To store leftovers, let it cool completely. Then, place it in an airtight container. It can stay in the fridge for up to 4 days. You can also freeze it for up to 3 months. Just make sure to reheat it thoroughly before serving. For more flavor, marinate the chicken overnight before cooking. If you like a thicker sauce, mix a little cornstarch with water and add it to the pot during the last hour of cooking. Feel free to customize the recipe with your favorite vegetables.
