detailed description

Start by preparing your ingredients. Chop the onion and garlic finely, cut the chicken into pieces, and peel and chop the potatoes into bite-sized chunks.
Heat the vegetable oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and garlic, sautéing until they become fragrant and the onion is translucent.
Add the chicken pieces to the pot, cooking them until they are browned on all sides.
Now add the cilantro, chopped potatoes, peas, chicken broth, salt, and pepper to the pot. Stir everything together until well mixed.
Cover the pot and let everything simmer for about an hour, or until the chicken is cooked through and the potatoes are tender.
