  • 3 lbs whole chickens, cut into serving pieces
  • 1/4 cup vegetable oil
  • 1/3 cup water

  3. Mix together the salt and turmeric and rub the chicken with the mixture.
  4. Heat the oil in a skillet over medium-high heat, add the chicken and cook until it is browned, turning over once, about 10 minutes. Remove the chicken.
  5. Add the sliced onions and the pureed onion mixture to the pan and cook, stirring occasionally, until the sliced onion is very limp.
  6. Process the tomatoes with their liquid until smooth; add to the skillet along with the water, soy sauce and zest.
  7. Return the chicken except for the breasts to the pan, cover, and simmer for 25 minutes.
  8. Add the breast pieces and continue to simmer, covered, for about 20 more minutes, or until the meat is no longer pink.
  9. Remove the chicken from the skillet to a serving dish and cover to keep warm.
  10. Boil the sauce, uncovered, stirring constantly, until it is reduced to about 3 cups. Skim off and discard the fat. Spoon the sauce over the chicken.
