One-Pot Chicken Dinner (Nigerian) 0

Posted on October 24, 2007 by admin

1 large Chicken — cut in quarters or

2 cups -water 1 Onion — thinly

sliced 1 Stalk celery — cut into 1″ 1 teaspoon Salt 1/8
teaspoon Crushed dried red

pepper 2 Tomatoes 1 Green pepper — sliced 1 tablespoon Lemon
juice 1 tablespoon Tomato paste 1/2 teaspoon Chili powder 10 ounces
Package frozen okra — if they like it or y Nigerian) 2 cups Cooked
rice In a large pot or Dutch oven place chicken, water, onion,
celer, salt and crushed pepper.
Cover and cook over miderately high
heat until comes to a boil, reduce heat to moderately low and
simmer 30 minutes.
While chicken is cooking, place tomatoes in a
pan of boiling water for 1/2 min.
Spoon tomaotes out of the water
and remove skin.
Cut into eighths.
Add tomatoes, green pepper,
lemon juice, tomato paste, and chili powder to chicken.
Continue
cooking for 10 minutes.
Add okra to pot, cover and cook another 15
minutes.
Stirring once or twice.
Spoon rice into soup bowls and top
with chicken mixture.
When making cassaroles, I do not put the rice
in with everything else if I am going to be freezing or storing.
White rice can be frozen in the cassarole but I find that if I use
brown rice, it gives everything a distinctly grainy flavor that I
find disagreeable.
So I will put the rice in a plastic ziploc bag
and freeze it with the cassarole.
Then I will heat it separately.
