| one | fryer chicken, cut into serving pieces |
| 2 t | Jon's Chicken Spice |
| one t | red pepper flakes, crushed |
| 2 medium | onions, cut into quarters |
| 32 oz | homemade chicken broth |

Place chicken, chicken spice, red pepper flakes, onions and chicken broth into large pot. Heat to low boil, reduce heat and simmer 30 minutes
Add green bell peppers, chili powder, lime juice and tomato paste. Mix well. Simmer 15 minutes more
Add tomatos. Simmer 15 minutes more
Add okra. Simmer 15 minutes more
Remove meat and vegetables, and let butter melt over the top of them. Leave broth in pot
Reduce broth by 50 - 70% over highest heat. It will thicken as it cools.
Either serve sauce over chicken and vegetables, or use it to season cous-cous as a side dish (my preference)
