4. Cover the pot completely and place on a medium to high heat for 10 minutes to steam the chicken.
5. Blend the canned tomato, half an onion, half an inch of ginger, making sure to cut up the ginger into small pieces first so it blends properly. Also take the Scotch bonnet pepper that was steamed along with the chicken and add it to the blender. Blend.

Helpful Tips

You can eat this with plain rice served normally, or rice shaped into a ball. To be able to shape the rice into a ball add a bit more water than usual as the rice is cooking to make it softer.
