How to make Mountain chicken

- After marinating, heat 2 tbsp of vegetable oil in a large pot over medium heat until shimmering.
- Add 1 chopped onion and 1 chopped bell pepper to the pot and sauté for about 5 minutes until softened and fragrant.
- Add the marinated mountain chicken to the pot and cook for about 10 minutes, turning until browned on all sides.
- Cover the pot, reduce the heat to low, and simmer the chicken for 45 minutes, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking.
- Check the chicken for tenderness and ensure it is cooked through before removing from heat.
- Let the chicken rest for a few minutes after cooking to allow the juices to redistribute.
