Bring the broth to a boil. Pour water into a pot and add the broth, bring to a boil and cook over medium heat until everything dissolves

Debone the chicken. Cut the chicken into individual parts - wings, breasts, thighs, and drumsticks, separate the meat from the carcass, save the bones for the broth

Clean the vegetables. Clean the vegetables, peel the garlic and onion, cut the onion into larger pieces, clean the pepper and also cut it into larger pieces

Sear the chicken. Season the chicken with salt and pepper and sear it in a pan over medium heat for about 4-5 minutes on each side until golden brown, then remove

Saute the vegetables and cook the sauce. Add the onion, garlic, and pepper to the same pan and saute over medium heat for about 2-3 minutes. Add the basil and tomato sauce and stir briefly

Add the chicken and cook. Add the chicken back to the pan, add the bouillon and water (or use broth instead if you have it), and let everything cook together for 5 minutes.

Cover and cook. Cover with a lid and cook over low heat for about 25 minutes

Reduce the sauce. Remove the chicken from the sauce and reduce the sauce over higher heat until it thickens

Return the chicken and serve. Return the chicken to the sauce and serve 🍽️✨
