Lit chicken legs white onions or yellow whatever onions you got you need um that’s coriander tumeric uh chicken broth or stock okay you season your legs you know I use seasoned salt and pepper they want you you you can just use salt and pepper we going to keep it simple it’s a simple
Rendition of this dish you can do it many ways black pepper you want that black crack you know fresh black crack pepper don’t mind the pan I was using don’t worry about that you understand me we use what we got get you some olive oil you can use vegetable oil trust me I
Did them all they all pretty much the same thing they just want you to buy that fancy that ain’t what we doing okay now you going to fry off that chicken you just searing it you understand me you just want some color on it you understand Z boom fry that
Chicken till it’s brown and blue Z boom I mean it ain’t going to be blue goodness but you see that you see that color see that color that brown just all you want you just want that brown cuz this is like a this basically like a stew with stock chicken and vegetable
It’s all it is it’s just from Africa some weird stuff in here it’s all I’m going to say okay so you going to get that chicken out once you done sh all your chicken you going to use the same pan you going to put your onions in
There now you about to up all that flavor on the bottom you know what I mean you know what I’m trying to say you about to sop up all that flavor on the bottom that’s just what it is and you pretty much going to sweat these down
You want to soften them up or if you’re anything like me I’m not really big on texture with all these vegetables so I try to I cook it a little bit longer than you would so you just want to you know sweat it soften it up sprink a
Little s there if you want to if you want it to help it okay so there go the black pepper I think that’s turmeric coriander uh and cilantro you know that’s what you going to use you going to dump that in there you going to dump all that in there okay you
See that chicken on the side so you going to dump all that in there you going to mix it up until it gets aromatic it’s going you going to smell it it’s going to hit you R in your nose it’s going to hit you so you going to
Stir that up you going to get that flavor okay now you about to add the lemon preserve um lemon peels they preserve I mean you you look up how to do that I’m not about to get on here and tell you how to do that you going to
Dump that in there with the cilantro with the uh olives green olives pit it you don’t want you want to take everything they don’t have no pits in them so you going to dump that in there with the veget with the onions and all the the the okay so now you’re going to
Put the chicken in there cuz you you basically about to put it in the oven and it’s a braided chicken it’s a stew like come on man I mean I can’t tell yall how many more ways I can tell yall now y about to dump that chicken broth up in there
Like I said don’t worry about the pan it did what it was supposed to do you know you going to dump that in there then you going to put it in the oven you going I want to say you put some foil over but I really can’t remember so okay so yeah
Put some foil over it put the oven 350 boom Bop zop Zoom Bop you put that in the oven you understand me and okay now we about to make the cous you put the water in there with the butter and you bring it up to a
Boil then you’re going to I want to say okay there go the couscous you know finally ground basically I think it’s like finally ground cornmeal or some like that I don’t know but anyways you’re going to get that that’s going to be boiling boiling water now you about
To gradually pour this couscous in there then you take it off the heat cover it up I don’t remember for how long but you cover it up until you get a certain texture or you can Fork it through and it’s stiff but you know it’s not soupy
You see that I’m about to show you look at that fork look at that fork work don’t mind the tiny Fork don’t even don’t mind the tiny Fork it’s showing you what need see that Z boom Z boom it’s fluffy I mean I’m going just be honest with y’all this this was okay
Like I I I followed the recipe this is not my recipe I just wanted to do something look it look good I’m telling y’all I did I did everything it was supposed to do you see that see that chicken is ready it’s fall off the bone
You may not look like it but it was fall off the bone so now you going to get that put it on that couscous boom you see that it was a little too soggy for me like I said this a African dish different cultures have different things
I probably eliminate the lemon and you know that might do a trick for you but OG VP I’m out of here Z boom
