Simple Chicken & Vegetables Dish

It is quick to prepare and one can use any kind of vegetables which are available at hand. The recipe is simple (campak-campak version) and it tastes great when served with hot rice and any kind of sambal.


Ingredients (serves 4):
4 chicken legs, to be cut at joints
1 red bell pepper, to be deseeded and cut into strips
1 bunch spring onions, to be cleaned and cut into 5 cm strips
2 medium-sized carrots, to be peeled and diagonally thinly sliced
1 medium-sized onion, to be peeled and cut into wedges
2 pips garlic, to be peeled and thinly sliced
2 large potatoes, to be peeled and cut into cubes
6 cherry tomatoes, to be left whole
some parsley, to be plucked
2 tsp instant vegetable stock granules
salt & pepper to taste
cooking oil

Method:
Season chicken pieces with salt and pepper.  Heat 2 tbsp oil in a large heavy pan over medium high heat.  Fry chicken until slightly browned on all sides.  Remove from pan.

Add in potatoes into pan and stir-fry for about 5 minutes.  Then, add onion wedges, spring onions and carrots.  Stir-fry for another 5 minutes before returning the chicken pieces to the pan.  Cover pan and cook until chicken is tender.  This will takes another 15 minutes.

Remove lid and add vegetable stock granules, salt and pepper to taste.  Lastly, add in the cherry tomatoes and parsley.  Add a little hot water if the gravy is too dry.  Serve with rice and any kind of sambal.

Bon Appetit!
