Ingredients
- 4 pieces skin-on chicken (breasts or thighs)
- 2 tablespoons sweet paprika
- 1 large onion, chopped
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 2 bell peppers, mixed colors, sliced
- 1 cup chicken broth
- 1 tablespoon fresh thyme
- 1 tablespoon fresh parsley, chopped
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- Optional vegetables (mushrooms, zucchini, etc.)
Instructions
- Prepare the chicken: Pat your chicken pieces dry with paper towels and season generously with salt and pepper.
- Sauté the aromatics: In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add chopped onions and sauté until translucent. Toss in minced garlic and cook for an additional minute.
- Brown the chicken: Increase the heat and add the chicken pieces to the pan, skin-side down. Cook until golden brown, about 5-7 minutes. Flip and repeat.
- Add vegetables and spices: Once browned, add bell peppers and sprinkle the paprika over the chicken. Stir in broth to deglaze the pan.
- Simmer: Cover and simmer on low for 20-25 minutes, allowing the chicken to cook through.
- Finish with herbs: Just before serving, sprinkle fresh thyme and parsley over the dish.
- Serve: Pair with your favorite starch and enjoy!
