1. Season the chicken pieces with salt and pepper. Heat a little vegetable oil in a heavy stainless steel pan on high heat and brown the chicken pieces on all sides. Once the chicken is browned, pour in a half cup of water and turn the heat off. The residual heat will boil the water and deglaze the pan. Set aside.
