Ingredients
- 2 cups pimiento-stuffed Manzanilla Olives from Spain divided
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 5 ounces Spanish chorizo thinly sliced
- 4 cloves garlic smashed
- 2 red bell peppers thinly slices
- 1 medium Spanish onion sliced
- 1 prig rosemary
- 2 cups torn kale leaves packed
- 8 bone-in chicken thighs
- 1 tablespoon Spanish paprika
- 1 teaspoon each: salt and pepper
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 425 degrees. Coarsely chop 1 ½ cups of the Manzanilla Olives from Spain.
- Heat the olive oil in a large, ovenproof skillet over medium-high heat. Add the 1 ½ cups of chopped Manzanilla Olives from Spain, the chorizo, garlic, red peppers, onion, and rosemary and cook just until the veggies begin to soften, about 5 minutes. Add the kale to the skillet and let it wilt.
- Add the chicken thighs to the skillet, nestling them between the veggies. Sprinkle the top of the chicken with the Spanish paprika, salt, and pepper.
- Put the skillet into your oven and cook for 40 minutes, or until the chicken has reached an internal temperature of 165 degrees Fahrenheit.
- Sprinkle the remaining ½ cup of Manzanilla Olives from Spain around the skillet and serve right away.
Cup of Yum
Notes
- Try to make sure a bunch of the kale is on top and not stuck under the chicken or veggies. The kale that is on top will get deliciously crispy in the oven.
