📝 Preparation Steps

If you are using a whole chicken, start by separating it into separate parts and season them on both sides with salt and pepper.

Heat the rendered bacon fat in a large rondeau pot over medium-high heat until it begins to smoke lightly.

Remove the chicken and set it aside on a plate.

6
Add the peppers and sauté over medium heat for 3 to ⏱️ 4 minutes.

Stir in the garlic and cook it until it’s fragrant, which takes about ⏱️ 30 seconds.

Place the cooked chicken back in, place on a lid, and cook for ⏱️ 45 minutes to ⏱️ 1 hour or until the chicken is very tender.
12
In a bowl, whisk together the sour cream and flour until combined.
13
Pour about a ½ cup of the chicken braising liquid into the bowl with the sour cream and mix.

Once the chicken is cooked, remove it from the pan and whisk in the sour cream mixture and bring to a boil to thicken. It should be thick and creamy like alfredo sauce.
