Instructions
In a bowl combine the chicken thighs with 2 tsp Adobo Spice and mix to coat. You can add a little oil to help it stick and marinate.
Preheat over to 200C
Meanwhile place a large pan on a medium heat, add the oil and then the marinated chicken and sear for 3-5 minutes on each side until it starts the brown.
Place the chicken in a large ovenproof dish
Now add the onions and peppers to the pan you had the chicken in and soften for 5 minutes before adding in the garlic, ginger and pineapple chunks. Stir for a couple of minutes
Add this onion and pepper mix to the ovenproof dish with the chicken, top with the chopped tomatoes, soy sauce, a large handful of fresh coriander finely chopped, chickpeas and a little extra salt to season. Stir everything together and place in the oven.
Bake for 30-35 minutes stirring around half way through that time. Check the chicken is cooked.
Remove from the oven and rest for a couple of minutes before serving with rice or a warm flatbread and some natural yoghurt.
