Cooking beans with chicken and vegetables step by step

2. Peel the chicken meat (we don't need it) and cut into convenient pieces. It is best to use meat with bones: drumsticks, thighs or ham, as these parts of the chicken are much juicier than, for example, brisket.
3. Fry the meat in a pan with the addition of sunflower oil until golden brown. Peel and wash the onions and carrots under running water, cut them as small as possible and send the onions to the meat to fry first, and then the carrots.
4. When the meat with vegetables is almost ready, add sour cream diluted with boiled water, tomato sauce, finely chopped garlic and spices to taste. Instead of tomato sauce, you can use ketchup, tomato paste, tomato juice, or just take a few tomatoes, peel them by dipping them in boiling water for a minute, and finely chop the stalks and add to the dish. Simmer the resulting gravy for a few minutes.
5. Drain any remaining liquid from separately cooked beans and mix with the gravy. Tint with your favorite spices, if necessary. If the beans seem a bit dry, add more water.
