3 lb. chicken parts, such as thighs, legs, wings, or a mixture
1 tsp. salt, or to taste
Freshly ground black pepper
1/4 c. all-purpose flour (about)
3 to 4 tbsp. peanut, grapeseed or olive oil
1 onion, sliced
1 red or green bell pepper, diced
3 garlic cloves, crushed
3 tbsp. chopped parsley
1 1/2 tsp. fresh thyme, chopped, or 3/4 tsp. dried thyme
1/4 tsp. cayenne pepper, or to taste
1 c. canned tomatoes, drained
2 c. chicken broth
1 (10-oz.) package frozen corn kernels
Rinse the chicken under cold running water and pat dry with paper toweling. Rub the chicken with the salt and black pepper.
Place the chicken in a plastic or brown bag and toss with the flour, coating lightly all over, adding flour if necessary.

Add the tomatoes and chicken broth and bring to a boil. Return the chicken to the pan. Reduce the heat to low, cover and cook the chicken, stirring occasionally, for about 40 minutes or until a leg or thigh is clear at the bone when cut with a knife.
Stir in the corn and cook 10 minutes longer or until the corn is tender and the dish is piping hot, stirring a time or two. Serve with rice. Serves 4.
