Chicken Provencal

A chicken dish that I have already loved with the whole family, the aroma that is left throughout the house is so appetizing that you will not have the patience to taste it.

You can take the mixture of Provence Herbs and ready-made at the store, or combine the spices yourself: thyme, rosemary, marjoram, basil, oregano - or at least 3 of them.

Ingredients

Chicken meat
1 kg
I took boneless and skinless thighs - you can also cook whole chicken pieces
White onion
2 pieces
Canned chopped tomatoes, 300g
1 piece
or 6-7 diced tomatoes
Pitted olives
150 g
Garlic cloves
6 pieces
Red peppers
0.5 pieces
optional
White dry wine
40 ml
Extravirgin olive oil
2 tbsp
Herbes de Provence
2 tsp
Cumin
0.5 tsp
optional
Salt and pepper
1 tsp
to taste

Step by step

Step 1

Prepare all the ingredients - I fried kalamata olives with seeds (to remove the seeds, press the olive with a turned knife and notice that the seeds will come out very easily).
