Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Ingredients

    Begin by chopping and preparing all vegetables. Slice the carrots, dice the potatoes, chop the onion and bell pepper, and mince the garlic.

  2. 2

    Cut the Chicken

    Cut the chicken thighs into bite-sized pieces, making them easier to cook and eat.

Cooking

  1. 3

    Sauté the Aromatics

    In a large pot, heat 2 tablespoons of oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and minced garlic, and sauté until the onion is translucent, about 3-4 minutes.

  2. 4

    Brown the Chicken

    Add the chicken pieces to the pot and cook until they are browned on all sides, about 5-7 minutes.

  3. 5

    Add Vegetables and Spices

    Stir in the carrots, potatoes, bell pepper, and green beans. Add salt, black pepper, paprika, thyme, red pepper flakes, and bay leaves. Mix everything well.

  4. 6

    Add Chicken Broth

    Pour in the chicken broth, ensuring that all ingredients are covered. Bring the mixture to a boil.

  5. 7

    Simmer the Hot Pot

    Once boiling, reduce the heat to low, cover, and let it simmer for about 30 minutes, or until the vegetables are tender and the chicken is cooked through.

Serving

  1. 8

    Garnish and Serve

    Remove the bay leaves from the hot pot. Ladle the hot pot into bowls, and garnish with freshly chopped parsley before serving.
