Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Marinate the Chicken

    In a large bowl, combine the chicken thighs with olive oil, minced garlic, cumin, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Mix well to coat the chicken evenly and let marinate for at least 30 minutes.

  2. 2

    Prepare Vegetables

    Chop the onion and bell pepper into small pieces. Set aside.

Cooking

  1. 3

    Sauté the Chicken

    In a large skillet or Dutch oven, heat a tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat. Add the marinated chicken thighs and cook for about 5-7 minutes on each side until golden brown. Remove from skillet and set aside.

  2. 4

    Cook the Vegetables

    In the same skillet, add the remaining tablespoon of olive oil. Add chopped onion and bell pepper, and sauté for about 5 minutes until softened.

  3. 5

    Combine with Sauce

    Stir in the tomato sauce and chicken broth, mixing well. Return the chicken thighs to the skillet and ensure they are submerged in the sauce.

  4. 6

    Simmer

    Cover the skillet and reduce the heat to low. Let it simmer for 25-30 minutes until the chicken is cooked through and tender.

Serving

  1. 7

    Garnish and Serve

    Once cooked, remove from heat and garnish with fresh cilantro. Serve with lime wedges and sour cream on the side.
