To make Tomato Paste Chicken and Pea Stew, brown chicken and onion, stir in tomato paste, then add peas and enough water or stock to simmer until tender. Add the peas later if you want them to keep their shape.
Yes, frozen peas work well in Tomato Paste Chicken and Pea Stew and can go straight into the pot without thawing. Add them toward the end of cooking so they heat through without becoming mushy.
Both chicken breast and thigh work in Tomato Paste Chicken and Pea Stew. Breast cooks quickly and is leaner, while thigh stays juicier during simmering; cut the pieces evenly so they cook at the same rate.
Yes, potatoes and carrots are common additions to Tomato Paste Chicken and Pea Stew. Cut them into similar-sized pieces and add them early enough to soften, while saving the peas for later so they do not overcook.
Rice, bulgur, or crusty bread are good choices with Tomato Paste Chicken and Pea Stew because they pair well with its tomato-rich cooking liquid. A simple green salad or yogurt on the side makes the meal feel fresher.
Add the peas to Tomato Paste Chicken and Pea Stew near the end rather than simmering them for the entire cooking time. This matters especially for frozen peas, which are already partly softened and need less cooking.
Yes, Tomato Paste Chicken and Pea Stew can be made in a slow cooker. Brown the chicken and tomato paste first for deeper flavor, then cook with the liquid and vegetables; add frozen peas near the end to preserve their texture.
Tomato Paste Chicken and Pea Stew keeps for about 3–4 days in the refrigerator when cooled promptly and stored in a covered container. Reheat only the portion you plan to eat, until it is steaming hot throughout.
Yes, Tomato Paste Chicken and Pea Stew freezes well in airtight, meal-sized containers. Thaw it in the refrigerator and reheat thoroughly; peas may soften after freezing, and any potatoes in the stew can become grainy.
Yes, fresh peas are suitable for Tomato Paste Chicken and Pea Stew. Shell them and simmer until tender, allowing more cooking time than you would for frozen peas; taste as you go to avoid overcooking.

Tomato Paste Chicken and Pea Stew is a Turkish home-style dish of chicken and peas simmered with tomato paste. The paste gives the cooking liquid a deep red colour and savoury, gently tangy flavour, while the peas soften and the chicken adds substance. Recipes vary from kitchen to kitchen, with some cooks adding other vegetables.
It is usually served hot as a main course, often with rice or bread to soak up the sauce. Chicken contributes protein and peas bring fibre, making the stew a filling everyday option; it provides 10.1 g of protein per 100 g. For a lighter plate, use a modest amount of oil and serve it with a crisp salad.
