What it is

Lomé's grilled chicken and fish quarter: poulet bicyclette (the tough, flavourful free-range 'bicycle chicken') grilled and served with attiéké-like accompaniments, onions and piment — the maquis plate of Togo. Ingredients: free-range chicken, salt, garlic, chiles, onions, oil; fried plantain, rice or attiéké. Recipe: 1) Season the chicken simply. 2) Grill slowly over charcoal until the skin crisps (free-range takes time — and gives flavour). 3) Serve with raw onion and chile. 4) Add the day's sides. Serve: at Lomé's maquis with cold drinks. Flavor: deep chicken, smoke, fire. History: 'poulet bicyclette' (so named, legend says, for the traders who bicycled them to market) is francophone West Africa's quality mark; Togo grills it proudly. See also: Gboma Dessi, Akoumé.
