Chicken Stew with Greens and Tomatoes

I really like this season, when vegetables and leafy greens are coming along. The first ones are, of course, the lettuce and the green onions and garlic. Apart from salad, I didn't know another way of preparing them and this food idea came right on time. Very fast, good and flavorful, you can use as much onion and garlic as possible, as they are the most suitable for this food.

It is very tasty with polenta, potatoes or simply with bread.
