There are few "clear water" locations in easy distance (75 miles) from
my home. We do have bass, crappie (AKA "speckled trout" but not really
a trout), various other "sunfish" inclusing perch, bluegill, bream, and
pumpkin seed.

     Title: Nigerian One-Pot Chicken Dinner
Categories: Poultry, Rice, Casseroles, Chilies
     Yield: 6 Servings

     1 lg Chicken; quartered or in
          - serving pieces
     2 c  Water
     1 lg Onion; thin sliced
     1    Rib celery; in 1" chunks
     1 ts Salt
   1/8 ts Crushed dried red chilies
     2    Tomatoes
     1 lg Green bell pepper; sliced
     1 tb Lemon juice
     1 tb Tomato paste
   1/2 ts Chilli mix powder
    10 oz Pkg frozen okra
     2 c  Cooked rice

 In a large pot or Dutch oven place chicken, water, onion,
 celery, salt and crushed chilies. Cover and cook over
 moderately high heat until it comes to a boil, reduce
 heat to moderately low and simmer 30 minutes.

 While chicken is cooking, put tomatoes in a pan of
 boiling water for 1/2 min. Spoon tomaotes out of the
 water and remove skin. Cut into eighths.

 Add tomatoes, green pepper, lemon juice, tomato paste,
 and chilli mix to chicken.

 Continue cooking for 10 minutes. Add okra to pot, cover
 and cook another 15 minutes. Stirring once or twice.
 Spoon rice into soup bowls and top with chicken mixture.

 w/hen making cassaroles, I do not put the rice in with
 everything else if I am going to be freezing or storing.
 White rice can be frozen in the casserole but I find that
 if I use brown rice, it gives everything a distinctly
 grainy flavor that I find disagreeable. So I will put
 the rice in a plastic ziploc bag and freeze it with the
 cassarole. Then I will heat it separately.
