Instructions
Season the chicken drumettes with paprika, turmeric, oregano, rosemary, and salt.
Dica: Reserve the amount of seasoning according to 1kg of drumettes.
Place the chicken in a pan and add just enough water to cover the bottom to begin the cooking process.
Dica: If the water evaporates during the initial process, add a little more water.
Cook the chicken in the water for approximately 10 to 15 minutes, turning occasionally, until the water evaporates and the chicken starts to brown.
Dica: Do not add oil even if the water dries up; add just a tiny splash more water if needed.
When the chicken is nicely browned and the water is gone, add the minced garlic and chopped onion to the chicken in the pan.
Dica: Sauté the garlic and onion for about one to two minutes.
Add the okra (to taste), chopped red bell pepper, and halved cherry tomatoes to the pan with the chicken and sautéed aromatics.
Dica: Cooking with the meat juices will help eliminate the sliminess of the okra.
When the okra is dry (not slimy), add about 200 ml of water (or the desired amount for the sauce) and let it simmer until the okra is fully cooked.
Dica: If you prefer a saucier dish, increase the amount of water.
Finish the dish by sprinkling fresh herbs like thyme (with the stem) or green herbs (parsley, scallions, cilantro) over the top.
Dica: Thyme with the stem adds a pleasant aroma to the finished dish.
