Whole Chicken + 10 Onions!! FOOD IN AFRICA - Senegal’s Unbelievable Chicken Yassa!! · Mark Wiens
Mark Wiens was deeply impressed by the intense sourness and flavor profile of Yassapoli, specifically noting how the lime juice, mustard, and caramelized onions power through the dish. He particularly enjoyed learning the traditional Senegalese technique of squeezing rice into balls by hand and was amazed by the fruity heat of the local 'iguana' chilies.
