Kedjenou Ivory Coast Chicken

Features:
    Cuisine:

    This was pretty tasty and the house smelled great while it was cooking. The result was a bit milder and a bit soupier than I expected, but the ginger gave it an interesting flavor. Next time I'll probably reduce the liquid by at least half. I noticed that most other Kedjenou recipes (like on www.congocookbook.com) called for either eggplant or okra, so I added some okra, which seemed to make it a more complete meal.

    Kedjenou (Ivory Coast Chicken), This traditional recipe is from the Ivory Coast, in the western part of Africa This dish is normally served over hot cooked white rice Feel free to use canned diced tomatoes , This was pretty tasty and the house smelled great while it was cooking The result was a bit milder and a bit soupier than I expected, but the ginger gave it an interesting flavor Next time I’ll probably reduce the liquid by at least half I noticed that most other Kedjenou recipes (like on www congocookbook com) called for either eggplant or okra, so I added some okra, which seemed to make it a more complete meal , I liked this recipe It had a good flavor with a little spiciness but not a lot I ended up just using 4 chicken breasts and added and extra cup of broth( I always use broth instead of water) I think it would be better with some dark meat as the recipe indicated
