Ingredients

  • 1 chicken
  • 1 onion, finely chopped
  • 2 garlic cloves, finely chopped
  • 4 ripe tomatoes, finely chopped
  • 2 bay leaves
  • 1 cinnamon stick
  • Salt
  • Pepper
  • Sweet paprika
  • 500 g elbow pasta
  • 1300 g water
  • 3 tablespoons olive oil

Instructions

  1. Cut the chicken into portions, wash it thoroughly, and let it drain in a colander.
  2. In a pot, heat the olive oil and sauté the chicken until it browns on all sides. Transfer the browned chicken to a clay pot.
  3. In the same oil, sauté the onion and garlic. Then add the tomatoes and sauté everything together for 2 minutes.
  4. Pour the sauce into the clay pot with the chicken, and add salt, cinnamon stick, bay leaves, and half of the water. Cover the pot.
  5. Preheat the oven to 200°C (390°F) and bake for 40-45 minutes, until the chicken is tender.
  6. When the chicken is about 10 minutes away from being done, add the elbow pasta, stir, and gradually pour in the remaining hot water to maintain the simmer.
  7. Once the pasta is cooked, add the pepper and paprika to retain their aromas.

Serve hot and enjoy!
