Ingredients
2 pounds fresh or frozen baby okra
1 whole chicken (4-5 pounds)
​1/2 cup olive oil
4 medium onions, sliced whole into rounds
5-6 garlic cloves, peeled
​15 ounces crushed tomatoes
salt and black pepper, to taste
pinch crushed red pepper flakes
1 teaspoon dried oregano
Instructions
Preheat oven to 375°F, 190If °C.

​Wash the okra under running water and place them in a large bowl that is fillled with cold water and about a half cup of vinegar. Let them soak in the water for 30 minutes. Pat them dry. Snip the tops of the okra and discard.

For frozen okra, place them into a collander and rinse with cool water. Thaw and pat dry with a paper towel.

Pan fry the okra in the olive oil for a few minutes or until some of them get golden. Do not cook them through. Remove from heat and place them in a large baking pan..

​Brown the chicken for 3-4 minutes on each side and add chicken to the pan. Either in the center or around the okra for a beautiful presentation.

Cook the onions in the pan until slightly softened and add the garlic in that final few seconds and cook until warmed through. Add the tomatoes and bring to a boil. Rinse the can with a cup of water and add to the sauce. Place the onions in the pan with the okra and chicken.

Season with salt, pepper and crushed red pepper flakes.

​Mix to coat everything well so that it is seasoned well.

Roast on the center rack for 1 hour and 15 minutes.

Season with dried oregano or chopped fresh parsley.

Serve with warm bread.

​Enjoy!​
