• Heat olive oil in a large skillet over high heat. Place chicken skin-side down in hot oil. Reduce heat to medium-high and cook chicken until skin is well-browned, about 5 minutes. Turn chicken and cook until just browned, about 2 minutes; transfer to a plate.

• Pour the chicken broth into the skillet; bring to a boil while scraping the browned bits of food off of the bottom of the pan with a wooden spoon. Add lemon juice, 2 tablespoons of the reserved olive brine, lemon zest, and cumin; increase heat to high and cook until sauce is reduced by half, 2 to 3 minutes.
• Reduce heat to low and return chicken, skin-side up, to the skillet. Cover the skillet with a lid and cook until no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear, about 5 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C). Remove chicken to a plate and cover with aluminum foil.

ANDALUSIAN CHICKEN WITH GREEN OLIVES AND BITTER ORANGES

Steps:

• Rub chicken with salt & pepper and let stand for 10 minutes.
• Place 1 tablespoon of the olive oil in a heavy shallow flameproof casserole or saute pan than can hold the chicken in a single layer and heat over medium-high heat. Working in two batches, brown the chicken all over, about 5 minutes per side. Transfer the browned chicken to a bowl.
• Add the remaining 1 tablespoon of the olive oil to the pan and reduce the heat to medium-low. Add the onion and cook, stirring occasionally, until it is limp but not browned, 5-7 minutes. Add the garlic and cumin and stir for 30 seconds. Add the sherry, increase the heat to high, and cook until the sherry is slightly reduced, about 1 minute. Add the bitter and regular orange juices and bring to a simmer. Return the chicken to the pan, cover it, reduce the heat to low, and simmer for 15 minutes.
• Add the orange zest, tomatoes, olives, and parsley. Continue to cook the chicken over low heat, covered, turning it once or twice, until very tender, about 25 minutes.
• Meanwhile, peel the oranges with a small sharp knife, removing all the white pith. Working over a sieve set over a bowl, cut in between the membranes to release the orange sections. Carefully stir the orange sections into the stew and cook until heated through, about 5 minutes.
• Transfer the chicken to a serving bowl, spoon the pan juices and olives over it, sprinkle the mint on top and serve.
