2 pound(s) chicken pieces
1 large onion, sliced
1/4 cup(s) lime juice (2-3 limes), or old sour if zest is desired
1/2 teaspoon(s) thyme
- salt and pepper, to taste
2 tablespoon(s) cooking oil

Steps:

In a large skillet heat oil and add chicken and onion. Squeeze the juice from 2-3 limes over chicken or substitute Old Sour if a spicier flavor is preferred.
Add thyme. Simmer chicken 30-40 minutes until fork tender and no longer red.
Add salt and pepper to taste and serve immediately.
Note: Most Bahamians also soak the chicken pieces in lime juice the day prior to preparing for a fuller flavor.
