Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Pat the chicken pieces dry with paper towels and generously season both sides with salt and pepper.
  2. In the preheated pot, add 2 tablespoons of olive oil and let it heat until shimmering. Sear chicken pieces skin-side down for about 4-5 minutes until golden brown.
  3. Flip the pieces to brown the other side for an additional 3-4 minutes. Remove chicken and set aside.
  4. Add potatoes and carrots, stirring to coat them in remaining oil and flavors. Sauté for about 3-4 minutes until they start to soften.
  5. Return the chicken pieces back to the pot, skin-side up. Pour in 1 cup of Guinness and sprinkle in your choice of herbs.
  6. Bring to a gentle simmer, cover the pot, and cook for about 30 minutes.
  7. In the last 5 minutes, stir in 1 cup of frozen peas.
  8. Serve in bowls with rich broth over the chicken and vegetables.
