Directions
Varna-Style Braised Chicken (Bulgarian Dish), This is a popular Balkan chicken dish smothered in rich, herby, sherry tomato sauce with mushrooms that we love having at home (Edited: moved garlic cloves and onions to include under For the sauce to coincide with procedure as spotted by KateL No actual change to recipe has been made ), Quite the tasty recipe without having to use much salt- the sauce definitely carries the dish well I did everything in a single wok so I could get the tasty brown bits from the chicken when I added the sauce ingredients- scrape the bottom a bit to get them into the sauce, its worth it My wife is allergic to mushrooms so I halved the chicken and sauce before adding mushrooms- both portions turned out excellent The non-mushroom portion reduced even more in the oven since it had less water content (because of the mushrooms), and was quite tasty too I served it on a bed of egg noodles, rice would definitely mop up every last bit of juice too
