Combine chicken, vinegar, black pepper, 1 tsp oregano and 1/4 tsp salt in a large bowl, turning to coat chicken on all sides. Let stand 20 minutes, drain. Heat 1 tbsp oil in a Dutch oven over medium - high. Add 6 chicken thighs to pan in a single layer; cook until well-browned, about 3 minutes per side. Transfer chicken to a plate. Repeat process with remaining 1 tbsp oil and remaining 6 thighs. Transfer chicken to plate when browned on both sides.
Reduce heat to medium. Add onion, bell peppers and garlic to pan; cook, stirring often, until vegetables are tender, about 10 minutes. Stir in saffron if using, cumin, 1 tsp oregano, 1 tsp salt; cook 1 minute. Stir in stock, farro and tomatoes. Increase heat to high, bring to a boil. Return chicken and accumulated juices to pan. Reduce heat to medium-low, cover and cook until chicken is done, about 20 minutes. Stir in olives. Cook uncovered until farro is tender and most of the liquid has been absorbed, about 8 minutes. Stir in peas and cook for 3 minutes. Serve
