Rinse the rice, then cook it with the chicken drippings plus enough water for your rice variety. If you do not have drippings, use water with chicken bouillon instead. While the rice cooks, cut the chicken into bite-size pieces and chop the tomatoes, onion, chilies, mango, and pumpkin leaves or greens.



Heat the cooking oil in a wok or large skillet over medium heat. Add the fenugreek, alligator pepper or black pepper, and nutmeg. Cook briefly until fragrant, then add the onion and saute until softened and translucent.



Add the tomatoes and pumpkin leaves or greens. Stir-fry until the tomatoes break down, deepen in color, and form a soft, saucy base. If the pan looks dry or the mixture starts to stick, lower the heat and add a splash of water.

When the rice is nearly done, season it with salt, cover, and finish cooking over low heat until the liquid is absorbed. Fluff the rice, stir in the sesame oil, and set it aside.


Add the mango, chili peppers, and cooked chicken to the tomato-greens mixture. Stir well and cook for a few minutes, just until the chicken is heated through and the mixture stays lightly moist.


Add the cooked rice in portions, stirring after each addition so the rice absorbs the sauce evenly. Stir in the Worcestershire sauce. Stop adding rice once the mixture is well combined but still moist, then taste and adjust seasoning before serving.
