Hi Steemians,

EVERYBODY LOVES CHICKEN! - I remembered this famous statement when I was a kid. Well, there is just a few of I know that loath to eat this poultry. These are just the people with allergies, unfortunately. I mean, who wouldn't want this meat outta pheasant. It is relatively cheap, tender, easy to procure and pleasant.

Today I am going to discuss on how to make a meal on surprise, surprise-CHICKEN. Enough of the typical fried, stew or grilled. Let us make this meal savory. (I am confident this will make grazz@grazz drool.)

I am going to present the procedure in a descending manner.

PREPARATION OF INGREDIENTS NEEDED

It is important to wash them thoroughly and drain excess water.
For this presentation, I used half a kilo of chicken.

Chicken(I personally prefer the bony parts not lean meat.)

1 potato and 1 carrot(You can of course add more, depending on your preference but I'm on a budget.)

Spices: garlic, onion and red bell pepper.(You can also add green bell pepper to diversify the colors adding presentation to your meal)

I soaked the vegetables in water to prevent discoloration.
