HAITIAN CHICKEN IN SAUCE



Haitian Chicken in Sauce image

This recipe was found on islandflave.com & this way I was able to obtain the correct amounts of the ingredients & proper cooking times. I have enjoyed making this chicken for a long time now, as it was given to me in Creole and without amounts. It is great the following day, that is if you have any left.Update: 07/18/2009 so as to make some more of the sauce w/out lessening all the good flavors, this time we made it with 6 cloves of garlic, 3/4 cup crushed tomatoes,1/4 cuo brandy or cognac & added broth as needed - low-sodium, low-fat chicken broth! As far as the peppers go I love Scotch Bonnet Peppers and their flavor is wonderful! As I was going to serve this to our friends - one of the kitchen aides asked me if I wouldn't put sliced olives in the dish and we did and it tasted awesome - on white rice or brown rice, if you choose and with string beans almondine.;)

1 (3 1/2-4 lb) fryer, cut into 1/8 's
1 large onion, sliced thin
1 scotch bonnet pepper, chopped fine
3 garlic cloves, smashed or 3 minced garlic
3/4 cup tomato sauce
3 tablespoons sugar or 3 tablespoons Splenda sugar substitute
salt, to taste
2 -3 limes or 2 -3 lemons
vegetable oil

Steps:

  • Wash chicken well & pat dry.

Tips:

  • Serve the fritters hot with your favorite dipping sauce.
