1
Season chicken pieces with salt and pepper, then brown in oil on all sides. Transfer the chicken in a greased baking dish.
2
In the same frypan, saute onion and garlic; spoon over the chicken in the dish. In a bowl, combine the salsa, water, currants, honey, cumin and cinnamon; pour over the chicken; mix with clean hands to slighty coat the chicken.
3
If you are adding in green bell pepper, just mix in with the salsa/honey mixture. Cover and bake for about 45-50 minutes, or until chicken is done. Sprinkle with slivered almonds.
