In a plastic bag combine:
1/2 cup all purpose or whole wheat flour
2 tsp sea salt
1tsp dried thyme
1/2 tsp ground black pepper
Then shake in, one at a time, the jointed pieces from a 3 pound chicken, to coat in the flour mix, then, shake off excess and set aside.
In a deep 12 inch skillet heat 3 tbsp grape seed oil.
Brown the chicken pieces in batches, setting aside.
After removing all the chicken then add the following to the skillet and continue cooking:
2 cups minced onion
2tsp ground paprika (I prefer smoked)
3 cloves garlic smashed and minced
10 ozs canned whole or chopped tomatoes with their juice
1/2 cup water
1 tsp sea salt
Bring to high simmer then add the browned chicken pieces.
Top with 1 cup toasted almonds (finely chopped or partially ground).
Cover tightly and simmer for 30-40 mins, or until chicken is tender, check every 20 mins as the dish can easily scorch, so it helps to stir it.
Check seasonings and serve with boiled potatoes, pasta or steamed rice/grains, you may add any chopped herbs of choice or scallions.
This is a sort of Chicken paprika with almonds, very tasty and different.
