1/3 cup flour
3 1/2 lbs chicken pieces
2 tablespoons olive oil
2 medium white onions, chopped
2 garlic cloves, minced
1 (28 ounce) can diced tomatoes, with juice
1/4 cup lemon juice
2 teaspoons dried oregano

3/4 teaspoon pepper
1 cup brine-cured black olives, pitted and cut in half
2 lbs potatoes, cut into large chunks (4 or 5 medium size)

1
Place the flour in a plastic bag, season with 1/4 tsp pepper. Trim excess skin and fat from chicken; shake chicken in bag with flour, a few at a time, to coat.

Heat the oil in large skillet or dutch oven, over medium heat. Arrange chicken in pan and cook until golden brown, 5 minutes per side. ( You may need to do this in batches) Remove to plate.
3
Add onion and garlic to the pan, cook stirring, for 5 minutes, until softened. Return chicken to pan, add tomatoes and juice, lemon juice, oregano, salt and pepper. Bring to a boil over medium heat, then stir in olives. Cover and let simmer for 25-30 minutes, stirring occasionally.
4
Add the potatoes, continue to cook for another 20-25 minutes, until potatoes are tender.
