Okra in India is loved when gooey and with its gooe-goodness it can jazz-up almost any food ingredient. I would go for chicken and okra for my Saturday Night Dinner. The recipe is as follows:
Ingredients
4 lb Chicken Breasts and legs
1 1/2 qts. Whole Baby Okra
4 Chopped Tomatoes
Red Wine Vinegar
Black Pepper
Bay Leaves
Cinnamon Powder
Garlic Paste
Sliced Onions
Dried Basil
1 Sliced Red Pepper
Cayenne Pepper
Oil
Salt
Method
1. In a bowl marinade for one hour chicken pieces with red wine vinegar, black pepper and dried basil.
2. In a wok fry washed, whole okras until brown. Set aside.
3. In the same pan add bay leaves, red pepper, onions and fry until brown. To it add garlic paste and tomatoes.
4. Fry this paste, stirring constantly for 15 minutes.
5. Add cayenne pepper, salt and cinnamon powder and marinated chicken along with the sauces.
6. Cook chicken until the moisture evaporates and chicken is tender.
7. Finish-up with the addition of okra and two cups of water. Simmer it covered for 5 minutes.
