👨🍳 Instrucțiuni
- 1
In a large pot, combine the chicken pieces with half of the chopped onions, minced garlic, grated ginger, salt, and pepper. Add enough water to cover the chicken and bring to a boil. Reduce heat, cover, and simmer for about 20-25 minutes until the chicken is cooked through. Reserve the chicken broth.

While the chicken is cooking, prepare the marrow. In a separate pot, add the beef marrow bones and cover with water. Bring to a boil and simmer for about 15 minutes to extract the marrow. Carefully remove the bones and set aside the marrow-infused liquid.
- 3
In a large skillet or pot, heat the red palm oil over medium heat. Add the remaining chopped onions and sauté until softened, about 5 minutes.
- 4
Add the chopped tomatoes and minced habanero pepper to the skillet. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the tomatoes have broken down and formed a thick sauce, about 10-15 minutes.
- 5
Stir in the crumbled chicken bouillon cube and the reserved marrow-infused liquid. Bring the sauce to a simmer.
- 6
Add the cooked chicken pieces to the sauce. Cover and let it simmer gently for another 15-20 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld and the chicken to absorb the sauce.
- 7
Adjust seasoning with salt and pepper to taste. If the sauce is too thick, add a little of the reserved chicken broth or water.

Serve hot, traditionally with rice, fufu, or akassa.
