Family Fijian Braised Chicken Flatbread

Assemble the ingredients: chicken, tomato, bay leaf, cinnamon, black pepper, potato, salt.

Warm oil in a heavy pot. Add the chicken and cook until braised.

Stir in the aromatics and spices — the backbone of Fijian flavors.

Add the remaining ingredients and cook gently, stirring occasionally, until tender.

Taste and adjust seasoning; the flavor should deepen as it cooks.

Plate and serve with traditional Fijian accompaniments such as bread, rice, or fresh herbs.
