Shake off excess flour and place in a medium-sized mixing bowl. Repeat with remaining chicken. Heat 2 tablespoons oil in a 5-quart pan with a lid; brown half of chicken over medium-high heat. Remove chicken from pan to bowl; repeat with remaining chicken. Then remove from pan and set aside. Add last 2 tablespoons of oil to the pan. Stir in onion and garlic and sauté until onion is tender; add tomatoes, chiles, oregano, and remaining cumin and pepper.
