The name of this dish certainly does not give the content away. The only give away is the chicken, but what kind of chicken? Well, let me do the honor -Poulet D.G is a cross between stir-fried chicken meal and Fricassee (classic French stew of chicken and vegetables, cooked in white wine and finished with a touch of cream.). There are different variations to this meal depending on the preparation.
This French-inspired meal uses indigenous spices, vegetables, and plantains, for this ultimate chicken recipe. Truly, nurturing and delicious – not to mention visually appealing. Its name suggests that it is superior to other chicken meals and made for the boss (Directeur General). It has evolved from being served in fine restaurants to being included in special occasion meals at home, during festivities, and for honored guests.
This meal is traditionally made with skin- on, bone-in whole chicken cut, for extra flavor. (You can use boneless, skinless chicken for this recipe). I sautéed the chicken in oil for a few minutes to add some flavor, then to intensify the flavor, I added the green spice blend, cook for a couple of minutes, followed by the vegetables. You should add the fried unripe plantains immediately before serving to retain its crunchiness. This one-pot meal will unquestionably become a household favorite. Make sure everyone is ready to eat right away because this chicken dish tastes 100% better when it is hot.
