This is a one pot dish that's ideal for cold weather. A comfort food I inherited from my mother. She's full of good food ideas. Aren't all mothers like that?

Ingredients
Switch to Cup Measures- 2 chicken legs (cut in half)
- bread flour
- 2 cloves garlic (chopped)
- 1 medium onion (chopped)
- 3 medium potatoes (cubed)
- 0.5 kilograms frozen peas (thawed)
- 1 litre boiling water
- 1 chicken bouillon cube
- dried thyme
- fresh oregano
- salt
- pepper
Method
- Heat up ordinary olive oil in pan, enough for browning the chicken pieces.
- Season the chicken with salt and pepper, dredge with flour and brown all sides in hot oil. Set aside. Pour off excess oil leaving about a tablespoon in the pan.
- Saute garlic and onions in the same pan until tender.
- Replace browned chicken pieces with all the nice juices that leaked out of the meat. Add potatoes, peas, water, bouillon cube, and the dried herbs.
- Simmer until the chicken and potatoes are done. Check seasoning and serve.
- If you're in for a good movie, get the bones off and flake the chicken in chunks however way you like it. I like mine in large chunks.
- And then sit back with your bowl of nice soup and enjoy.
