Stewed Chicken with Pea and Tomato Sauce

One-pot recipe for this easy-to-make chunky stewed chicken. Frozen bagged peas work great and save time. We also used canned Italian peeled tomatoes. The outcome is exceptionally tasty.

800 g chicken breast, cut into chunks
400 ml tinned Italian plum peeled tomatoes

Crush plum peeled tomatoes with a fork,place them in a bowl.
Coat chicken pieces in flour, coating them completely.

In a non-stick frying pan, heat 3 tablespoons of EVOO, brown garlic cloves, add chicken chunks and cook 5 minutes over medium-heat until golden brown, then deglaze with the white wine.
