This fried chicken recipe has Haitian roots. It varies from traditional American recipes but is just as good. The longer you leave it to marinate, the better. You may sprinkle freshly squeezed lemon juice on top if you like.

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.;)

Tips for Making Haitian Chicken in Sauce:

Use a whole chicken: This will give your sauce a richer flavor. If you don't have a whole chicken, you can use chicken breasts or thighs, but you may need to adjust the cooking time.
Brown the chicken before simmering: This will help to develop the flavor of the chicken and the sauce.
Use a variety of vegetables: This will add flavor and texture to your dish. Some good choices include onions, bell peppers, carrots, and celery.
Use a good quality tomato sauce: This will make a big difference in the flavor of your dish. If you can, use a homemade tomato sauce or a high-quality canned tomato sauce.
Simmer the chicken for at least 30 minutes: This will help to tenderize the chicken and allow the flavors to meld.
Serve the chicken with rice, beans, or potatoes: This will make a complete and satisfying meal.
