Instructions
Season the chicken generously with salt and pepper.
2-3 lbs chicken thighs,
salt,
ground pepper
Heat the oil in a large, heavy pot (Dutch oven) over high heat and, working in batches, brown the chicken pieces on all sides.
1 tbsp vegetable oil
Remove to a plate and set aside.
Add the onions, bell pepper, and garlic and saute for 5 minutes.
2 large onions,
1 large green bell pepper,
2-4 cloves garlic
Add the flour, paprika, curry powder, and cayenne and saute for 1 minute, stirring constantly.
3 tbsp all-purpose flour,
1 tbsp paprika,
1 tbsp curry powder,
1/4 tsp cayenne pepper
Add the chicken stock, scraping the bottom of the pot to dissolve the brown bits.
1 1/2 cups chicken stock
Bring to a boil, reduce the heat, and simmer covered for 10 minutes.
Add the tomatoes, raisins and bay leaf.
1 can tomatoes,
1/2 cup raisins,
1 whole bay leaf
Remove and discard the skin of the chicken and add the chicken and the accumulated juices to the pot, making sure it is submerged in the liquid.
Simmer tightly covered until the chicken is done, about 30 minutes.
Adjust seasoning with salt and pepper and serve garnished as desired.
