Senegalese Chicken Yassa - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    4 large onions, finely chopped, or more to taste
    3 lemons, juiced
    1/2 cup red wine vinegar
    2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
    6 cloves garlic, chopped
    1 habanero pepper, chopped
    2 bay leaves
    5 skin-on chicken breast halves, cut in half
    1/4 cup oil, or to taste
    2 cubes chicken bouillon
    1 cube beef bouillon
    1/2 cup hot water
    1 cup pitted green olives
    ground black pepper
Preparation
    Mix onions, lemon juice, red wine vinegar, Dijon mustard, garlic, habanero pepper, and bay leaves together in a large pot. Add chicken; cover and marinate in the refrigerator, at least 1 hour.
    Preheat grill for medium heat and lightly oil the grate.
    Transfer chicken to the grill, reserving onions and marinade in the pot. Grill until browned, 5 to 10 minutes per side.
    Heat oil in a deep skillet over medium heat. Add onions to the hot oil with a slotted spoon. Cook until golden brown, about 5 minutes. Pour in marinade; cook and stir until heated through, about 5 minutes. Stir in chicken.
    Crumble chicken bouillon cubes and beef bouillon cube into hot water in a small bowl. Pour into the skillet. Cover and simmer until flavors combine, about 30 minutes. Stir in olives and black pepper.
