Heat 3 tablespoons of oil in a large pot.

Add 6 crushed garlic cloves and sauté until fragrant.

Add 1 chopped large onion and cook until the liquid evaporates and the onion is translucent.

Stir in annatto powder and mix well.

Add chicken thighs and drumsticks, cut into small pieces, and fry until they release their liquid.

Do not add salt at this stage to prevent the chicken from releasing too much water.

Once the chicken is browned, pour in 5.5 L of beef or chicken broth and a little salt, adjusting for the concentration of the broth.

Stir and add more boiling water if needed, then cover and cook for 20 minutes.

In a separate bowl, dissolve 5 tablespoons of cornmeal in water.

Add the cornmeal mixture to the pot, stirring to combine and checking the texture.

After 10 minutes of cooking, add chopped cabbage and turn off the heat immediately after adding it.
