Gambia-- Yassa Chicken

So we’re still in West Africa (Fuck Yeah) and technically this country is called The Gambia, but eh it’s cool I’m gonna stick you in the G’s! This is a really tiny country wedged right in the middle of Senegal. Weird shaped and located country, but bomb ass food. Like you know that bite of something and you just stop the ground and say YAAAAAS JESUS, this is exactly what I did when I ate this chicken. Fuck, this chicken was fantastic, why? Because it had all of Emily’s Holy Trio-- Acid (Lime), Spicy (Habanero), and the Flavor Starter (Onion and Garlic because literally all recipes should have Onion and Garlic).

You marinate the chicken with this fantastic mixture and then you grill it, but not all the way cooked through. After it’s been browned on the grill, you put it back in a saucepan with the juices left from the marinade (If you’re paranoid about ewww gross raw meaty marinade juices being cooked, then make a separate marinade for the sauce) 

Paired this bitch with some rice and green beans, and all was good.

Rating-- 10/10 seriously, this was one of the best chicken recipes I’ve had in a long time.
