I said I wouldn't post anything for the challenge, so now that the round if over I can post the cook-along for the chicken dish I had made this week. It's easy, cheap (it's originally a Senegalese dish) and very tasty. I hope you guys like it!

Let's cook some chicken yassa.

Ingredients :
3 chicken tights with back attached (or a generous package of boneless, skinless chicken tights)
3-4 lemons (have a few spares if your lemons aren't giving much juice)
3-4 onions
4 garlic cloves
Black pepper
Olive oil
2 bay leaves.

1. Juice the lemon. You want to end up with roughly 2/3 cup of lemon juice, or a bit over.

2. Slice the onions. You don't want them too thin.

3. In a vessel large enough to contain teh chicken (I used a pyrex baking dish), spread half the onions and half of the lemon juice.

4. Nestle the chicken on top of the onions. I removed the skin but you can leave it on if you will grill the chicken.

6. Drizzle generously with olive oil and mix, ensuring the chicken is well coated.

Cover with cling wrap and allow to marinate in the fridge for 2-3 hours.

7. Once marinated, sear the chicken then transfer to a 400F oven. Or grill it for better results (my grill is under 3 foot of snow, so I went with the oven)

8. Pour all the marinade and onions into the skillet used to brown the meat (or a skillet, if grilling). Make sure to loosen up any and all stuck tasty bit at the bottom (you want to deglaze with the marinade, basically)

9. Bring to a boil for a couple of minute then drop to medium heat and cook the onions down until soft, sweet and almost melting.

I just realized, I have to invalidate your score, because you didn't identify yourself and didn't put any visual indicator in your images (parrot, dildo, Hello Kitty statuette, etc.) to differentiate yourself from the competition.

I award you no points, and may God have mercy on your soul.
