Cut chicken into serving pieces and season generously. Cover bottom of heavy skillet with tablespoon oil and heat to a frying temperature. Put in chicken pieces and move enough to keep from sticking. Brown on all sides, saute onion, bell pepper, and celery in remaining oil. Add to chicken. Cover and cook for about 1 1/2 hour (or longer). Before serving, remove chicken to platter, spoon off grease, and serve remaining gravy over rice.
