The Gambia : Chicken Yassa

CLICK HERE FOR THE RECIPE I USED

I had to make some adaptations with this recipe but only because the recipe calls for 1-2 whole chickens and that's way too much food for me.

I pared it down to 6 chicken thighs. And then reduced the measurements of all the ingredients based on what looked like the right amount or what felt like the right amount as I was preparing the meal. And it turned out pretty well!

It did turn out a little more mustard-y than perhaps it should have because I thought "Oh I don't need to measure, I'll just squeeze some out of the container into the pan." And more came out than I anticipated. Not so much that it was a problem but don't do what I did.

The chicken was flavorful and the sauce was tangy and oniony. I ate it with couscous and a side salad. The couscous was fantastic with it and I will happily eat the leftovers.
