Poulet Yassa (Chicken in Lemon-Onion Sauce)

Method

1. 1

   Marinate chicken and ALL the onions in lemon juice, mustard, garlic and oil at least 4 hours.

2. 2

   Shake off the chicken and grill or sear it until charred at the edges.

3. 3

   Cook the drained onions low and slow in the pot 25 minutes until silky and sweet.

   💡 The onions must go past soft into melting — this is the whole dish.

4. 4

   Return chicken with the marinade, olives and whole pepper; simmer 20 minutes.

5. 5

   Serve over broken rice, onions covering everything.
