APRON AND PANS: NIGERIAN STYLE CHICKEN/TURKEY STEW

Ingredients
12 turkey pieces (cut into halves if you prefer) or 20 chicken pieces
6 cups Nigerian stew base
1 medium onion bulb – peeled and halved
1.5 cups vegetable oil (4 cooking spoons)
Salt 
1 teaspoon thyme
1 teaspoon curry
1 teaspoon ginger powder (optional)
1 teaspoon white pepper



Directions
Season your turkey or chicken with salt, white pepper and other seasoning of choice. Place on a lined oven tray and bake at 400F for 25-30 minutes or until visibly shrunken.

Place a large pot on medium heat and heat up the oil. Add the whole onion and fry for 2-3 minutes. Remove and discard onion.

Pour in stew base and allow to fry for 5 minutes.

Add seasonings and 2-3 cups of water (depending on how thick you like your stew). Stir.

Add baked turkey/chicken and reduce heat to medium - low. Leave to simmer for 45 minutes to 1 hour stirring on occasion (the longer the better). Skim off any excess oil.

Serve stew with your choice of side.
