FAFA (POLYNESIAN CHICKEN)



Fafa (Polynesian Chicken) image

This was a dish served at the Tiki Theater Village in Moorea, FP. We absolutely loved the dish and we found a version of this recipe online. It goes great with the Tahitian Tuna (Poisson Cru) Recipe #214352 for an appetizer and Tahitian Coconut Bread Recipe #220088 for dessert.

CHICKEN FAFA

This is a version of a Tahitian dish, since Taro is hard to come by in the U.S. I substitute it with spinach leaves. This is also a mild dish. Serve this dish with rice, I prefer sticky rice, but any other kind works well. For different flavors try jasmine rice.
