Steps:
- Divide the oil between 2 skillets, and heat it over medium-to-high heat until it is hot. Add the chicken in one layer to the skillets. Sprinkle half the salt over the chicken pieces, and brown them for 5 minutes on one side, then for 5 minutes on the other side.
- Remove the chicken to a platter, and add the onions to the drippings in the skillets. Cook about 2 minutes over high heat to brown the onions lightly. Add the garlic, and cook about 30 seconds longer.
- If using canned tomatoes, divide the tomatoes and their juice between the 2 skillets, breaking up the tomatoes with the edge of the spoon as you mix them in. If using fresh tomato pieces, divide them between the skillets, and add 1/4 cup of water to each skillet. Mix well and bring to a boil.
- Return the chicken pieces to the skillets. Add the remaining salt and the pepper to the mixture, and bring to a boil. Then reduce the heat to low, cover and boil gently for 10 minutes.
- Arrange the chicken on a platter or divide it among six individual plates. Spoon the sauce over the chicken, sprinkle the chopped herbs on top, and serve.
