Description

This is a recipe from the region where I'm from in Brazil. It is good to eat on Sundays. In Portuguese it's called frango com caldinho.

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
Directions
  1. 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. 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. 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.
