Pierce the chicken so that it soaks up all the juicy flavours. I recommend using the very hot Nandos chilli sauce. Serve this with chips,salad and colesaw.

Extra comments:
This is very simple chicken stew to cook and a family favourite. The sauce should have a smooth consistency which is why you need to grate the onion and crush the garlic and ginger. The amount of water you add depends on how thick you want the stew to be. Serve this with plain rice.
