Anita's Famous International Chicken and Rice Dish image

I found this recipe in a Newspaper many years ago and I believe that it is an African dish if my memory is correct, although don't quote me on it. "This takes a little while to make but it's VERY delicious and worth the effort." The flavors are unique and wonderful!
