Chicken stewed with potatoes in a pot is a hearty and aromatic dish of Russian cuisine that conveys the warmth of home. Historically, such pots were used in village houses where food was cooked in an oven, filling the home with appetizing aromas. Tender chicken meat infused with spicy seasonings combines with soft potatoes and onions, creating a harmony of flavors. Slow simmering in broth makes the dish rich and deep. It is best served directly in the pots to retain all the warmth and coziness. An ideal option for a family dinner or leisurely lunch when you want to enjoy traditional flavors and a cozy atmosphere.
