Skillet-Braised Chicken Thighs with Chickpeas
2 cup all-purpose flour for dredging
12 bone-in chicken thighs (3 1/2 - 4 pounds), skinned and trimmed
Salt & freshly ground pepper to taste
1 1/2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil, divided
2 small dried red chiles, crumbled
2 onions, peeled, quartered and thinly sliced
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 teaspoon paprika
1 teaspoon dried marjoram
2 large vine-ripened tomatoes, seeded and chopped
2 large green bell peppers, cored, seeded and thinly sliced
1 cup reduced-sodium chicken broth, divided
1 15-ounce or 19-ounce can chickpeas, rinsed
2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley for garnish
1. Place flour in a shallow dish and dredge chicken thighs, shaking off excess flour. Season both sides with salt and pepper. Heat 1 tablespoon oil in a large cast-iron over high heat. Add the chicken, partially cover the pan and cook until the chicken is nicely browned, about 2 minutes per side. Transfer to a plate and set aside.
2. Reduce heat to medium and add the remaining 1 1/2 teaspoons oil to the pan. Add chiles and cook until they turn dark, about 2 minutes. Remove with a slotted spoon and discard. Add onions and garlic to the pan; cook until soft and lightly browned, 5 to 7 minutes. Add paprika and marjoram and cook, stirring, for 1 minute. Add tomatoes, green peppers and salt and pepper to taste; cook for 5 minutes longer.
3. Return the chicken to the pan, along with 1/2 cup chicken broth. Cover and simmer until the chicken is tender and no longer pink inside, 20 to 25 minutes
4. Add chickpeas and the remaining 1/2 cup chicken broth; simmer for 5 to 8 minutes. Blot any fat that rises to the surface with paper towels. Taste and adjust seasonings. Garnish with parsley.
