Wash chicken with lemon or lime.
Then season with the 2 cloves of garlic, 1 tablespoon of paprika, 2 tablespoons of turmeric, salt, black pepper.
Heat a medium to large sized pot over medium heat.
Once heated, then add oil.
When the oil gets very hot, then you add sugar to the pot.
Use a wooden spoon to stir sugar for even heat. When all the sugar turns dark brown and starts the caramelizing process, then pour the seasoned chicken into the pot.
Stir the chicken continuously to create a uniform coverage.
Add the the water
Add the carrots, ketchup, thyme, parsley, onion, rest of the garlic, paprika, turmeric, the seasoning peppers
Cover the pot, make sure the stove is on low to medium heat, and let it simmer 30 minutes or until it comes to the preferred reduction level and the right consistency. The chicken will naturally make it's own water as well.
