Servings: 5 people
Calories: 182kcal

Ingredients

  • 1 large red tomato about 8-9 oz., chopped
  • 1 large green tomato about 8-9 oz., chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic finely chopped
  • 3 Asian chiles or 1/2 jalapeno
  • 5 chicken drumsticks about 22 oz.
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons smoked paprika
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 tablespoon capers or olives
  • 1/2 cup Port wine
  • 1/4 cup Serrano ham torn
  • 2 tablespoons parsley finely chopped

Instructions

  • Sprinkle chicken pieces with black pepper, smoked paprika and salt. Toss to combine.
  • Heat oil in a deep skillet and brown chicken on all sides.
  • Add garlic, capers, tomatoes, chile and wine. Bring to a boil. Reduce to a simmer and cook until chicken is cooked though, about 15 minutes.
  • Add parsley and ham.
  • Stir to combine and cook for 1 more minute.

Notes

You can also use white wine. Since I used green tomatoes to contrast the tart flavor of the tomato, I used the sweeter Port wine.
