A version of chicken with okra can be found in several different cuisines, including Turkish, Greek, Indian and Creole. This is the Brazilian version, which originates from the state of Minas Gerais and is often served with Angu de Milho.

What makes our version different are the extra steps we take to make sure the okra isn’t slimy. Other cuisines might love okra’s viscosity, but Brazilians usually can’t stand it. If that’s you too, don’t worry! Ju
