Cook Notes Summary

The dish was successful and worth making again, especially when aiming for thoroughly cooked chicken and well-browned, slightly scorched potatoes. Timing can be difficult, so expect some practice and adjust quantities or cooking times as needed; keeping the chicken in the skillet throughout is simpler but may dry it out, while removing it during vegetable cooking should help preserve moisture.】【。

Heat a large skillet over medium heat.

Add olive oil to the hot skillet.

Tear or crush the bay leaves into several pieces.

Thinly slice the garlic cloves.

Cut the green peppers into thick strips.

Peel the potatoes and cut them into thick steak-fry wedges.

Cut the chicken breasts into finger-size strips.

Sauté the chicken with sliced garlic, most of the crushed bay leaves, and salt until the chicken is lightly browned; transfer the chicken to a platter and keep it warm, leaving the garlic, bay leaves, and cooking residue in the skillet.

With the garlic, bay leaves, and cooking residue still in the skillet, add more olive oil if needed and sauté the potato wedges, pepper strips, remaining crushed bay leaves, and salt for a few minutes.

Cover the skillet to steam the potatoes and peppers, checking occasionally and turning them as they begin to brown.

Uncover the skillet and continue turning the potatoes and peppers until they are browned and beginning to stick to the pan.

Return the browned chicken to the skillet and cook with the potatoes, peppers, garlic, and bay leaves until the potatoes are tender, the chicken is thoroughly cooked, and everything is nicely browned.
