Step 3
Next, add tomatoes, tomato puree, tomato sauce and the garlic cloves. Finally add the stock and close the pot. Turn on the heat on your pot.
Step 4
Bring to the boil and reduce heat to a gentle simmer until the stock is reduced and the chicken is cooked (it will become tender so as to be pierced easily by a fork but not overdone as to separate from bone).
