Method
1. Heat 2 tablespoons oil in a large, non-stick frying pan over medium-high heat. Cook chicken, in batches, for 1 minute each side or until browned. Transfer to a plate.

2. Add remaining oil to frying pan. Add onion. Cook, stirring, for 3 minutes or until soft. Add garlic, paprika and capsicums. Cook, stirring, for 2 minutes. Stir in wine. Bring to the boil. Return chicken to pan. Add tomatoes and potatoes. Cover. Reduce heat to low. Simmer for 30 minutes.
