In Spain you would find the capers in the dish. Serving size: 4 Preparation time: about 1 hour Amount/Measure/Ingredient: 1-3 pound chicken, cut into wings with tips removed, breasts, thighs, drumsticks, (8 pieces); washed and patted dry Preparation: In a heavy bottom pan heat the oil until it very hot but not smoking. Dip the chicken pieces in the flour seasoned with 1 tsp. salt and shake off any excess. Fry the chicken over medium heat until golden on all sides, about 20 minutes removing the smaller cooked pieces as they become browned. Then remove the remaining from the pan and keep warm. Add the onions, garlic, green and red pepper, bay leaf, thyme and oregano; sauté 6-7 minutes, until tender and the onions are translucent. Add the tomato, rice, chicken stock, salt, pepper, olives, optional capers and the browned chicken, stir and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat to low and simmer covered for 25 minutes. Remove the cover, taste it and add more salt if needed, then sprinkle on the peas stirring them in. Cover again for 5 minutes. To serve place in a large bowl, arrange the chicken pieces on top of the rice and sprinkle with fresh chopped parsley. Copyright 1995-2022 Content Chef John, Good Cooking, Inc.
