Method

Wash and clean chicken pieces thoroughly. Add all ingredients except sugar and mix until all pieces are coated properly. Let stand for half an hour. Heat Dutch oven on a high flame until you see smoke and add sugar. Sugar should melt very quickly. It will turn caramel then get darker and start to bubble and separate, that's when you add the chicken and stir quickly. When chicken is completely mixed in sugar cover and lower flame to medium. Cook until all liquids evaporate then add 3 cups water. Let cook until most of the water evaporates again leaving a little for gravy.
