2 quarts water
2 large yellow onions; peeled, coarsely chopped
2 large sweet green peppers; cored, seeded and coarsely chopped
2 garlic cloves, peeled and crushed
1/4 C. olive or other cooking oil

Instructions:
Remove all body fat from the cavity of the bird, then place the bird and giblets in a large kettle.

Lift the chicken from the kettle and cool, strain the stock and reserve. In the same kettle, stir-fry the onions, green peppers and garlic in the oil for 8-to-10 minutes over moderate heat until the onions are golden. Add all remaining ingredients except the almonds and simmer, uncovered, for 45 minutes, stirring now and then. Meanwhile, skin the chicken, remove the meat from the bones, and cut in bite-sized pieces; also dice the giblets and reserved liver. Add the chicken, giblets and liver to the kettle and simmer, uncovered, for 15 minutes.
