This is the most succulent, flavorful chicken ever, full of veggies and good, homey sweet flavor. Layered seasoning and low, slow cooking are key here. It never disappoints, is always delicious, and the side dish is built into the recipe. Thanks to my sis-in-law Shaindy for sharing this recipe.
3 tablespoons Tonnelli Avocado Oil
3–4 medium onions, sliced
3 carrots, peeled and cut into large chunks
2 sweet potatoes, peeled and cut into thick half-rounds
1 yellow zucchini, peeled and cubed
1 green zucchini, peeled and cubed
3 cloves garlic, chopped or 3 cubes Gefen Frozen Garlic
1/4 cup Gefen Ketchup
salt, to taste
pepper, to taste
6 chicken bottoms, cleaned and halved
paprika, to taste
garlic powder, to taste
onion powder, to taste
1 20-ounce (570-gram) can Gefen Pineapple Chunks, with juice
1 and 1/2 cups Gefen Ketchup
1/2 cup brown sugar
1/2 cup duck sauce
1 and 1/2 tablespoons freshly squeezed lemon juice (optional, but recommended)
Heat oil in a wide, low, deep pot. Add onions and sauté for 10 minutes.
Add carrots, sweet potatoes, and zucchinis. Sauté over low heat for 20–30 minutes, or until veggies are light brown. Add garlic for the last two minutes.
Pour the ketchup over the veggies. Season with salt and pepper.
Add chicken to the pot, skin-side down, in one layer. Season generously with paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper.
To prepare the sauce, combine all ingredients in a small bowl.
Pour the sauce over the chicken. Scatter pineapple chunks over everything.
Bring to a boil, then lower heat and cook for at least five hours. The chicken and veggies will release their own juices. If necessary, add 1/2 cup water halfway through.
