The island nation of Madagascar is famous for its amazing animals and beautiful flowers. It should also be well-known for this delicious chicken dish, Akoho sy Voanio (Chicken in Coconut Milk). To serve this dish Malagasy style, it must be served with Rice.
           Ingredients:

           Cooking Instructions:
  • Sprinkle chicken with salt and pepper to taste. Slice the tomatoes into small cubes. Set aside.
  • Shred the coconut into a clean cloth. Fold the cloth around the shredded coconut.
  • Wet the cloth using a glass of warm water. Squeeze the cloth and the shredded coconut to extract coconut milk. Discard the shredded coconut.
