How To Prepare
Pat chicken pieces dry with paper towels and season with 1/2 teaspoon pepper.
Heat oil in a large heavy casserole or Dutch oven over medium heat. Add onions and sprinkle with Splenda. Cook, stirring frequently, until the onions are very soft and light brown, 10 to 15 minutes.
Stir in bell peppers, tomato paste, paprika and crushed red pepper. Add the chicken and stir it gently into the onion mixture. Sprinkle with marjoram and add broth. Cover the pot with a tight-fitting lid and simmer over medium-low heat until the chicken is very tender, about 50 minutes.
When the chicken is done, remove it to a plate. Stir potato flour into the sauce; return to a simmer and cook, stirring, until the sauce coats the spoon. Reduce heat to low, return the chicken to the sauce and reheat, about 1 minute. Serve garnished with parsley, dill and/or chives, if desired.
TIPS & NOTES
Make Ahead Tip: Prepare through Step 3, cool to room temperature and refrigerate for up to 1 day. Finish with Steps 4-5 before serving.
Tip: Cut each chicken breast in half crosswise to make pieces about the size of a thigh. When the pieces are about the same size, they’ll cook at about the same rate.
