VARNA-STYLE BRAISED CHICKEN (BULGARIAN DISH)



Varna-Style Braised Chicken (Bulgarian Dish) image

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.)
