Preparation

Step 1

Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Mix slat, pepper, garlic powder and cumin and sprinkle on both sides of chicken. Heat oil in a cast iron skillet over medium-high heat. When oil begins to shimmer, brown chicken starting with skin side down, about 4-5 minutes per side. Brown in two batches to not overcrowd pan. Reserve chicken on a plate.

Lower heat to medium and add onion and bell pepper to skillet. Saute until onion translucent, about 6-8 minutes. Add garlic and tomato paste to skillet and stir them into the onions and peppers. After 1 minute, when aroma of garlic is clear, add soy sauce, OJ, stock and chickpeas to skillet. Bring to a boil. Turn off heat and stir in thyme and orange zest. Place reserved chicken onto chickpeas, skin-side up and transfer skillet to oven.

Roast for 25-30 minutes or until liquid has reduced and chicken skin becomes crispy. Squeeze a little OJ over thighs and serve.
