The amount of ingredients depends on the amount of chicken.

First, wash the chicken. I usually wash it with lemon, but if I don't have lemon, I use vinegar.

Add all the seasonings to the chicken and mix well to incorporate everything.

In a pot or pan where you cook your chicken, add the oil and let it heat up a bit, then add the sugar. The sugar needs to caramelize a bit to give the chicken color. I like doing it this way because it gives the meat a different flavor.

Add the chicken to brown, leave it for a minute, then turn it to get color on the other side. Cover it and let it steam, adding a little water to prevent burning.

Keep a close eye on the chicken to ensure it doesn't dry out. Cook it for about 40 minutes, adding a little water and stirring.
