Season the chicken pieces with salt and pepper and let them rest for a few minutes.
Heat the oil in a pot and brown the pieces of chicken that have been seasoned with salt and pepper. Start browning on the skin side and then turn over to brown the other side.
When the chicken is nicely browned, remove and set aside.
In the same pot, fry the onion, garlic, and ají panca pepper. Add the tomato sauce, the mushrooms soaked in water, and the chicha de jora. Season with salt, pepper, and cumin. Add the broth.
Let all the flavors meld together and return the prey.
Cook for about 10 minutes.
Add the potatoes and continue cooking.
When the potatoes are almost ready, add the carrot, peas, and thyme.
Finish cooking and adjust the seasoning.
Serve with a portion of rice.

Whenever you're going to use dried mushrooms, soak them in water for a few minutes before starting your recipe. They'll release more flavor.
