Take off all the skin off the chicken and wash good

Put your chicken in a large bowl and add 1 tablespoon of the oil + the scallions + tomato's + red onion + garlic + black pepper + thyme + paprika + and onion powder and massage it in the chicken and let sit for at least a half hour

In a large deep frying pan add the 3 tablespoons of oil and let heat

Once oil is heated grab one peace of chicken at a time using a fork and scrape off the onions and tomato back into the bowl and add the chicken to frying pan

Once chicken is all in pan sprinkle the chilli pepper flakes over the chicken and fry until the chicken is nicely browned

While the chicken is browning add the water to the bowl that your chicken was marinating in and add the salt and stir trying to get all the seasons off the side of bowl in the water

Once the chicken is browned well enough add the water mixture in the pan and bring to boil on high heat

As it starts to boil turn heat to medium heat and cover (stir occasionally)

Once the water starts to evaporate and thicken up uncover and add the ketchup and brown sugar and continue cooking till your water turns into a gravy...serve over rice !
