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.

Recipe Note

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.
