Flatten the two whole chickens to fit the cooking pot.

Boil the chicken with salt, pepper, garlic powder, ginger powder, oregano, Nor seasoning, dried bay leaves, and one red scotch bonnet pepper, adding water to help cook the chicken for 30 minutes to 1 hour over medium heat.

Prepare a sauce by blending fresh tomatoes, grated garlic, grated ginger, smoked paprika, blended sweet chili pepper, juice of one lime, and liquid Nor seasoning with oil.

Set the sauce aside after mixing well and tasting for desired flavor.

After boiling, remove the chicken and coat it with the sauce, covering it to marinate for at least four hours.

Transfer the marinated chicken to a grill tray and grill for 10 to 15 minutes until fully cooked, turning occasionally.

Let the chicken rest for five minutes before serving.
