Ingredients

  • ¼ cup vinegar
  • 1 tablespoon chopped garlic
  • 2 teaspoons paprika
  • 8 skin-on chicken thighs, trimmed
  • 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
  • 3 large onions, diced
  • 5 tomatoes, diced, or more to taste
  • 2 bay leaves
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • 2 tablespoons water, or as needed

Cooking Directions

  1. Whisk vinegar, garlic, and paprika together in a large bowl. Add chicken and turn to coat. Let marinate in the refrigerate, at least 1 hour.
  2. Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add onions; cook and stir until golden, about 5 minutes. Add chicken, discarding marinade; cook until browned, about 5 minutes per side.
  3. Stir tomatoes, bay leaves, and salt into the skillet. Add a little water to prevent sticking. Reduce heat to medium and cook, adding water to thin sauce as needed, until chicken is tender, about 40 minutes.
Substitute lemon juice for the vinegar if desired. The longer you marinate the chicken, the better; Nutrition data for this recipe includes the full amount of marinade ingredients. The actual amount of marinade consumed will vary.
