The National dish of Guinea Poulet Yassa

Make the marinade by mixing peanut oil, lemon juice, sliced onions, salt, pepper, bay leaf, and garlic.

Place the pieces of chicken into the bowl and mix thoroughly until the meat is coated with the marinade.

Cover the meat with plastic wrap and let it chill overnight in the refrigerator.

Fry the chicken pieces until golden brown and cooked through, then set aside.

Reduce the oil and sauté the marinated onions in the pan until brown and caramelized.

Add 4 cups of water to the pan and stir.

Reduce the heat and allow to simmer for 30 minutes.

After 30 minutes, add the fried chicken and let it simmer for a few minutes.

Plate and serve with warm white rice.
