The main thing is to buy a good chicken. The most delicious chicken is, of course, homemade, which nibbled grass and walked in the meadow. But there is one caveat, if the chicken was not a meat breed, but just a laying hen, then, unfortunately, it is impossible to cook such a dish from it. Since it has tougher, fibrous meat, leave it to make flavorful broths.
When choosing a chicken, pay attention to the condition and color of its skin, the elasticity of the meat and, of course, the smell. Don't buy pre-frozen pieces of chicken meat, it's better to take fresh chicken and carve it yourself.
To make the meat more fragrant, first we will stew it with onions.
