Ingredients for Sweet-and-Sour Chicken Thighs with Carrots

• 8 small chicken thighs with skin and bone (2 1/2 to 1.2kg total), trimmed of excess fat

• 2 cucharaditas de sal

• 1 1/4 teaspoons paprika

• 3/4 teaspoons cinnamon

• 1/2 cucharaditas de pimienta negra

• 1 1/2 cucharadas de aceite de oliva

• 1 large onion, halved lengthwise, then cut lengthwise into1/4-inch-wide strips

• 450g carrots (6 medium), cut diagonally into 1-inch pieces

• 2 cucharadas de ajo picado

• 120ml de agua

• 60ml de jugo de limón fresco

• 2 cucharadas de miel suave

• 1 tablespoon finely chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley

• 1 tablespoon finely chopped fresh coriander

Pat chicken dry. Stir together 1 1/2 teaspoons salt with paprika, cinnamon, and pepper and rub onto chicken.

Heat oil in a 12-inch heavy skillet over moderately high heat until hot but not smoking, then brown chicken in 2 batches, turning over once, about 10 minutes per batch. Transfer chicken as browned to a plate.

Discard all but 3 tablespoons fat from skillet, then add onion and carrots. Sprinkle with remaining 1/2 teaspoons salt and pepper to taste and cook over moderate heat, stirring occasionally, until onion is softened and beginning to brown, 8 to 10 minutes. Add garlic and cook, stirring occasionally, 1 minute.

Return chicken, skin sides up, to skillet, nestling it into vegetables. Stir together water, lemon juice, and honey until blended and add to skillet, then cook over moderately low heat, covered, until chicken is cooked through and carrots are tender, 25 to 30 minutes. If necessary, skim fat from sauce, then add salt to taste. Sprinkle with herbs just before serving.
