Main Ingredients

Spices and Seasonings

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Ingredients

    Start by gathering all the ingredients. Dice the onion and bell pepper, mince the garlic, and chop the parsley. Set aside.

  2. 2

    Season the Chicken

    In a bowl, season the chicken thighs with salt, black pepper, paprika, and cumin. Rub the spices into the chicken to ensure it's well coated.

Cooking

  1. 3

    Sear the Chicken

    In a large skillet or pot, heat olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the seasoned chicken thighs and sear on both sides until golden brown, about 5-7 minutes per side. Remove the chicken and set aside.

  2. 4

    Sauté the Vegetables

    In the same skillet, add the diced onion and bell pepper. Sauté until the onion is translucent, about 3-4 minutes. Add the minced garlic and cook for an additional minute.

  3. 5

    Combine Ingredients

    Return the seared chicken to the skillet. Add the diced tomatoes, chicken broth, green olives, and bay leaves. Stir to combine all ingredients well.

  4. 6

    Simmer the Dish

    Bring the mixture to a boil. Once boiling, reduce the heat to low, cover, and let it simmer for about 30 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and tender.

Finishing Touches

  1. 7

    Garnish and Serve

    Once cooked, remove the bay leaves. Garnish with freshly chopped parsley before serving. Enjoy your A la Antigua Usanza!
