A green salad and some crusty bread is all that’s needed for a delicious supper, but there’s enough sauce to have rice as part of the menu.

Preparation
In large bowl, combine paprika, thyme, mustard, cayenne, cloves, salt and pepper; add chicken and roll to coat well. In large deep skillet or shallow saucepan, heat oil over medium heat; brown chicken well, in batches, removing to plate.
Pour off all but 2 tbsp (25 mL) drippings from pan. Add onions, garlic, ginger and any remaining spices in bowl; cook, stirring, for 5 minutes. Stir in tomatoes, 1/2 cup (125 mL) water, brown sugar and soy sauce. Bring to boil, scraping up any brown bits from bottom of pan.
Return chicken and any juices to pan; add squash. Reduce heat, cover and simmer for about 35 minutes or until squash is tender and juices run clear when chicken thigh is pierced.
Dissolve cornstarch in 2 tbsp (25 mL) cold water; stir into stew and cook, stirring, until thickened. Taste and add more salt and pepper if needed. Serve sprinkled with parsley.
