Senegalese Chicken Yassa

Senegalese Chicken Yassa
  • 4 large onions, finely chopped, or more to taste
  • 3 lemons, juiced
  • 1/2 cup red wine vinegar
  • 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
  • 6 cloves garlic, chopped
  • 1 habanero pepper, chopped
  • 2 bay leaves
  • 5 skin-on chicken breast halves, cut in half
  • 1/4 cup oil, or to taste
  • 2 cubes chicken bouillon
  • 1 cube beef bouillon
  • 1/2 cup hot water
  • 1 cup pitted green olives
  • ground black pepper


  1. Mix onions, lemon juice, red wine vinegar, Dijon mustard, garlic, habanero pepper, and bay leaves together in a large pot. Add chicken; cover and marinate in the refrigerator, at least 1 hour.
  2. Preheat grill for medium heat and lightly oil the grate.
  3. Transfer chicken to the grill, reserving onions and marinade in the pot. Grill until browned, 5 to 10 minutes per side.
  4. Heat oil in a deep skillet over medium heat. Add onions to the hot oil with a slotted spoon. Cook until golden brown, about 5 minutes. Pour in marinade; cook and stir until heated through, about 5 minutes. Stir in chicken.
  5. Crumble chicken bouillon cubes and beef bouillon cube into hot water in a small bowl. Pour into the skillet. Cover and simmer until flavors combine, about 30 minutes. Stir in olives and black pepper.
