Chicken in tomato sauce from Zakynthos

Wash the portions. Dry to remove whatever liquids are left over from washing.

Salt and pepper thoroughly and then sauté in the butter until they brown on all sides.

Add the onion and when it is tender deglaze with cognac and scrape of the bottom of the pot to remove the little bits of meat and skin that are stuck there from sautéing.

Add the rest of the ingredients, salt, pepper according to taste and let everything boil for a couple of minutes.

Add as much water as is necessary to just cover the chicken and cook over medium fire until only the sauce is left. 

Serve with fried potatoes, pasta with plenty of cheese, rice or purée and bon appetit.
