While this recipe does require planning five days in advance, this time is mostly hands-off while the tomatoes ferment. The process of fermenting adds great depth of flavour to the sauce, bringing funkiness and drawing out the natural sweetness of the tomatoes, which becomes rich and sticky as the chicken slow cooks. To start the fermentation, sterilise a large jar and add the tomatoes, garlic, Aleppo pepper, chilli, thyme, parsley, and salt to jar and set aside in a cool, dark place for 5 days, burping regularly to allow excess gas to escape. Make sure your jars are sterilised by running through a dishwasher or rinsing with boiling water and drying in a very low oven.
