🌿 4-Ingredient Spring Braised Chicken (or Pork)
🛒 Ingredients
4–6 bone-in chicken thighs or pork neck pieces
1 packet onion soup mix
1 cup water or light broth
2–3 cups fresh spring vegetables (like potatoes, carrots, or green beans)
🍳 Instructions
Prep the dish
Place the meat in a baking dish or pot. Arrange the vegetables around it.
Mix & pour
Sprinkle the onion soup mix evenly over everything, then pour in the water or broth.
Slow cook
Oven: Cover with foil and bake at 160°C (320°F) for about 2.5–3 hours
Slow cooker: Cook on low for 6–8 hours
Finish
The meat should be tender enough to fall off the bone. Spoon the juices over everything before serving.
🍽️ Why it works
The soup mix adds seasoning without extra effort
Slow cooking breaks down the meat until it’s super tender
Spring vegetables soak up all the flavor
