Preparation
- Marinade the chicken with lemon juice, 2 cloves garlic, and salt for at least 30 minutos
- Take the chicken out of the marinade, retaining as much marinade as possible.
- Simmer the chicken with the bay leaf and thyme until cooked
- Remove chicken from the pan and pull the meat off the bone. Keep the 'stock' left behind.
- Heat the oil and sauté the onion, garlic and chilli until soft and translucent
- If you are serving with rice, this is a good time to get that boiling or steaming
- Add the tomato purée, tomato, the marinade and half of the stock and stir in well
- The mixture should have a consistency similar to a bolognese sauce. Add more stock if it is too thick.
- Add the okra and the chicken back to the mixture and cook for an additional 5 minutes or so until the okra is tender
- Season with salt and pepper
- Serve with rice
