Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Brown the Chicken

    In a large pot, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the chicken pieces and season with salt and black pepper. Brown the chicken on all sides for about 5-7 minutes.

  2. 2

    Sauté Vegetables

    Remove the chicken and set aside. In the same pot, add the chopped onion, bell pepper, and minced garlic. Sauté for about 3-5 minutes until softened.

  3. 3

    Add Tomatoes and Spices

    Stir in the diced tomatoes, cumin, paprika, and bay leaves. Cook for another 2-3 minutes.

    Simmer the Chicken

    Return the chicken to the pot and pour in the chicken broth. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat to low. Cover and simmer for about 30-40 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through and tender.

    Garnish and Serve

    Remove the bay leaves, garnish with fresh cilantro, and serve hot with rice or bread.
