Aromatic Slow-Cooked Chicken

There’s nothing like simmered chicken for comfort, or to feed hungry guests. We think of this as a North Indian version of a European-style slow-cooked chicken dish such as pot-au-feu, brothy, with wonderful depth of flavor. The chicken pieces simmer in plenty of aromatic sauce that is tempered at the last minute with a little vinegar and sugar. Any leftovers are delicious.
