Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

6 to 8 chicken thighs, depending on the size
Salt
1 tablespoon olive oil
Pinch paprika
4 cloves garlic, peeled
2 Fresno chiles, sliced in rings
1 Spanish onion, sliced
1/2 cup Marcona almonds
2 bunches kale, rinsed, dried and roughly chopped
1 fresh bay leaf
1/2 cup chopped fresh parsley
Zest of 1 lemon

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
  • Sprinkle the chicken thighs liberally with salt. Heat a Dutch oven over medium heat, add the oil and brown the thighs skin-side down for 3 minutes per side. Season with a pinch of paprika, stir until the spice releases its aroma and then remove the chicken and set aside.
  • Add the garlic, chiles and onions to the pan and sweat for 4 minutes. Add the almonds, kale, bay leaf, 1 cup of water and a liberal amount of salt and bring to a simmer. Top with the chicken skin-side up and bake for 20 minutes.
  • Top with the parsley and lemon zest and serve.
