Servings: persons

14 1/2 ounces can diced tomatoes
2 teaspoons sherry wine vinegar
1 pinch saffron thread
4 small boneless skinless chicken breast halves (about 1-1/2 lb. total)
kosher salt & freshly ground black pepper
1/4 cup all-purpose flour
2 1/2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
1/2 lb chorizo sausage, cut into 1/2-inch dice
3 large garlic cloves, smashed
15 ounces can chickpeas, rinsed and drained
1 teaspoon dried thyme

1
Puree the tomatoes and their juices, the vinegar, saffron, and 1/2 cup water in a blender or food processor. Season the chicken with 1 teaspoons salt and 1/2 teaspoons black pepper, dredge the chicken in the flour, and shake off any excess.
2
Heat 1-1/2 Tbs. of the oil in a 12-inch skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering hot. Add the chicken and cook without touching until browned, 2 to 3 minutes. Flip and cook until the other sides brown, 2 minutes more. Transfer to a plate.
3
Add the remaining 1 Tbs. oil to the pan and then add the chorizo and garlic. Cook, stirring often, until they start to brown, 1 to 2 minutes. Add the tomato puree, chickpeas, and thyme and bring to a boil. Add the chicken, nestling it into the sauce. Reduce the heat to a simmer, cover, and cook until the chicken is cooked through, about 10 minutes. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Remove the garlic cloves before serving, if you like.
