CHICKEN IN BEER SAUCE -- POLLO A LA CERVEZA

Steps:

• In a ziplock bag, mix the flour, 1 tsp of the salt and the pepper.
• Add the chicken pieces, seal the bag and shake up and down to coat the chicken.
• Heat oil in a large, fairly deep frying pan.
• Add chicken and cook on both sides until golden brown, about 15-20 minutes.
• Remove chicken from the pan.
• Lower the heat slightly and add the onion, garlic and pepper to the pan.
• Sauté for a couple minutes, then add the carrots.
• Cook for another couple minutes, then add the tomatoes and remaining salt, if needed.
• Cook for about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.
• Stir in the beer and potatoes.
• Top with the chicken and bring to a boil.
• Cover and let simmer over a low heat for 30 minutes.
• Remove the cover and cook for 5-10 minutes, until the sauce has thickened slightly.
• You can re-brown the chicken in a bit of oil in a second skillet, just before serving.
• I find it needs this"touch up" especially if it still has the skin on.
• Serve with your favourite green veggies.
