My Delicious Chicken in Tomatoes Sauce



This is the most simple and yet delicious dish to make. It does not take much of your time in the kitchen. When I want to cook something fast, I will definitely cook this. This red golden sauce chicken is tasty and fragrant, it has the sweet sour taste from the tomato and fresh lemongrass. I have been cooking this recipe for years, amended recipe few times and finally a week ago I came to a term that this is it, I will never amend this recipe again, this is exactly what I want in my dinning every weekend. Warning, this could be addictive! Keep this away from 'chicken'
