While the chicken marinates, place the spring onions, large onions, and garlic in a food processor. Add the chopped tomatoes, crumbled chicken stock cubes, 1/2 cup of water, salt, and pepper. Blend until smooth.

Heat the vegetable oil in a large pot or Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Brown the marinated chicken pieces on all sides. Remove the chicken and set aside.
