1

Use free-range chicken, known for its rich flavor.

2

Heat olive oil in a skillet until hot for frying the chicken.

3

Add garlic, salt, black pepper, and a pinch of seasoning to the chicken for maximum flavor.

4

Brown the chicken well; this is crucial for the best result.

5

Set the browned chicken aside.

6

In the same skillet, add diced tomato, onion, and bell pepper, along with grated carrot.

7

Cook the vegetables on high heat, adding salt, oregano, and a bit of basil.

8

Mix everything well and cook until the sauce develops flavor.

9

Add the browned chicken back into the skillet and mix to combine.

10

Cover and let it cook for 15-20 minutes to tenderize the chicken.

11

Add hot water to the skillet and cook for another 15-20 minutes, ensuring the chicken doesn't overcook.

12

For the boriborí, use white corn flour, salt, and grated fresh cheese.

13

Mix the corn flour with the cheese and water; no need to knead it into a dough.

14

Form the mixture into small balls, known as boriborí, which means 'little balls' in Guaraní.

15

Add the boriborí to the broth; if the corn flour is pre-cooked, it will be ready in 5 minutes; otherwise, cook for 10 minutes.

16

Serve the dish with the broth and chicken, garnished with the boriborí.
