Ingredients

6 chicken thighs and legs – skinned

1 cup all-purpose flour

1 onion – sliced

3 green bell peppers – sliced

4 cloves of garlic – crushed & chopped

3 zucchini – sliced

3/4 cup chicken broth

1 teaspoon smoked paprika

1 teaspoon paprika

1 teaspoon dried oregano

1 tps chili powder

Olive oil

Preparation

Preheat oven 350 degrees:

In a small baking dish place 1 cup of flour plus 1 tsp smoked paprika. Dip the chicken in the flour and place in a baking dish; sprinkle a tsp of dried oregano over the chicken. Drizzle a little bit of olive oil over the chicken and place in the oven.

Bake the chicken for about 45-50 minutes, until the chicken has reached a golden color.

In a bowl place the zucchini, peppers, onions and garlic. Add the chili powder and paprika and 2 or 3 tablespoons olive oil and toss.

In a large heated frying pan place the veggies and sauté until slightly golden. Dust the veggies with 1 tablespoon of flour and add the chicken broth and stir about 2 minutes, until the broth thickens.

Plate the chicken and spoon the veggies and thickened broth on top.
