Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Sear the Chicken

    In a large pot or Dutch oven, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Season the chicken thighs with salt and pepper and sear them for about 5-7 minutes on each side until golden brown. Remove the chicken from the pot and set aside.

  2. 2

    Sauté the Vegetables

    In the same pot, add the chopped onion, red bell pepper, and green bell pepper. Sauté for about 5 minutes until softened. Add the minced garlic and cook for another minute until fragrant.

  3. 3

    Combine Ingredients

    Add the diced tomatoes, chicken broth, and Piment d'Espelette to the pot. Stir well to combine. Return the seared chicken thighs to the pot, nestling them into the vegetables.

  4. 4

    Simmer

    Bring the mixture to a simmer, then reduce the heat to low. Cover and let it cook for about 30-35 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and tender.

  5. 5

    Serve

    Once cooked, taste and adjust seasoning with salt and black pepper as needed. Garnish with fresh parsley before serving.
