What's your favorite chicken recipe? I'm especially looking for recipes that can be used with bone-in legs/thighs, rather than whole chickens or chicken meat.

My partner's invention.

Saute onions in generous amount of olive oil. Dredge the thighs in flour mixed with curry spices: coriander, cumin, turmeric, fenugreek, cayenne, maybe a touch of clove or ginger if you fancy (proportions up to you, but I've listed them in descending order of quantity) and salt. Brown the thighs, then barely cover with stock. Add a few whole cardamoms. Coursely chop ripe mangoes and put over the chicken, and cover the lot with a thick layer of fresh spinach. Cover tightly and simmer for 40 minutes to an hour. The spinach should steam and sort of seal the dish. Serve over basmati rice.

in case it wasn't clear, brown the thighs in the olive oil with the onions in it.

also, mangoes should be just the flesh, not the skin or pit, obviously.
