I happened to bumped into an easy chicken recipe from one of the food blog that I frequent. The original recipe is actually fried chicken with tomato and basil. I changed it to a gravy version and added potatoes. Very simple and delicious, great to be eaten with rice or pasta.
Ingredients
3-4 pieces chicken thigh/breast (with or without skin)
3-4 tbsp butter
2 medium garlic, minced
1 large onion, minced
1 large potato, remove skin and cut into wedges
1 can (14oz) diced tomatoes
handful of basil, more if you like
salt & pepper
sugar
Method
1. Clean chicken pieces, pat them dry and rub salt and pepper
2. Heat pan and add butter to melt
3. Add chicken pieces and fry them till they turn pink
4. Add minced garlic and onion and fry them till soft
5. Add diced tomato and stir till well blend followed by basil
6. Add salt and a little bit of sugar to taste
7. Lastly add potatoes, stir to make sure that the potato pieces are covered with the gravy
8. Simmer till potatoes are cooked
9. Serve hot with rice or pasta
