Instructions

1. Preheat the oven to 190°C/375°F.
2. Soak the okra in cold water with about half a cup of vinegar for 30 minutes, then pat dry and snip off the tops. If using frozen okra, rinse under cool water, thaw and pat dry.
3. Pan-fry the okra in the olive oil for a few minutes until some pieces turn golden, without cooking them through. Transfer to a large baking pan.
4. Brown the chicken for 3-4 minutes per side and add it to the pan, in the centre or around the okra.
5. Cook the sliced onions in the pan until slightly softened, add the garlic for the last few seconds until warmed through. Add the crushed tomatoes and bring to a boil. Rinse the tomato can with a cup of water, add it to the sauce, and place the onions in the pan with the okra and chicken.
6. Season with salt, pepper and crushed red pepper flakes, then toss everything to coat well.
7. Roast on the centre rack for 1 hour 15 minutes. Finish with the dried oregano or chopped parsley.
