Yaya Encarna has something that has turned her TikTok videos into a benchmark for virality: she cooks for her entire family for less than 20 euros and has money and ingredients left over. An example is this roast chicken that has accumulated more than 8 million views, and is the ideal recipe to prepare on the weekend.
The first thing is to toast the almonds, which are what this time will help us thicken the sauce and achieve a much more interesting flavor in this chicken stew. You just have to put a little olive oil in a frying pan and put the almonds over medium heat, being careful not to burn them. We just want them to roast.
Meanwhile, we are going to chop the onion small and in the pan that we have the almonds we add the two cloves of garlic with a small cut but with skin. “We take out the almonds when they have a toasty color,” Encarna tells us. In that pan, we add the seasoned chicken thighs so that they brown and when they have taken on color, we add the onion. “Now I cover it and chop the almonds,” says the expert. What you do is crush them well in a mortar to obtain a paste to which you add the garlic when they are golden, from which you remove the skin first.
Don't forget to turn the chicken again so that it cooks evenly, always covering it afterwards so that it cooks well. Then add the red pepper cut into strips and cover again. When a few minutes have passed, add the tomato and then the wine because as Encarna says “we are going to make the chicken drunk.” We cover again and let it cook slowly.

The chicken is already taking shape, and we only have to add the chopped almonds with the garlic. While it finishes cooking, we are going to peel and chop the potatoes to fry them. “Once the potatoes are there, I add them with the chicken,” says Encarna. And now we just have to eat and do it for little money with a recipe that we can repeat every week.
