That's not a food recipe, anything with 24 whole cloves is a formulary
for drain cleaner... didja know that 24 whole cloves costs about as
much as that teensy bit of chicken. let alone all those other
ingredients... that recipe is a waste of ingredients, a waste of labor,
a waste of energy, a waste of time.
