JAMAICAN STYLE CURRY CHICKEN



Jamaican Style Curry Chicken image

This is a recipe that I have put together over some various websites, verbal consultations and just experimenting on my own and with my family. Rich and hearty with a great flavor when you can't get the real thing in the islands. Try a variety of hot peppers to change the flavor - even sweet bell peppers give a different taste. Use fresh thyme to really bring out the fresh taste.

JAMAICAN CURRY CHICKEN



Jamaican Curry Chicken image

I couldn't find a recipe I liked, so here is my family's version of 'curried' chicken. It brings back memories of a childhood spent enjoying food there, where there were very few dishes I wouldn't eat, vegetables or not. This dish is traditionally served on white rice or in a roti, but feel free to get creative!

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 16

¼ cup curry powder, divided
2 tablespoons garlic powder
1 tablespoon seasoned salt
1 tablespoon onion powder
2 teaspoons salt
1 sprig fresh thyme, leaves stripped
1 pinch ground allspice, or more to taste
salt and ground black pepper to taste
2 ¼ pounds whole chicken, cut into pieces
3 tablespoons vegetable oil
3 cups water
1 potato, diced
½ cup chopped carrots
2 scallions (green onions), chopped
1 (1 inch) piece fresh ginger root, minced
1 Scotch bonnet chile pepper, chopped, or to taste

Steps:

  • Whisk 2 tablespoons curry powder, garlic powder, seasoned salt, onion powder, salt, thyme leaves, allspice, salt, and pepper together in a bowl. Add chicken and coat with curry mixture until curry mixture is wet and sticks to chicken.

  • Option 2: Remove the chicken from the skillet and place in a bowl.
  • Turn up the fire to high and allow gravy to boil. Using a spoon, stir the gravy slowly and pay close attention to the consistency of the stew, Turn off the stove when it becomes thick enough.
  • Then add curry chicken back to the stew.

Tips:

- Use bone-in chicken pieces for a more flavorful curry. - If you don't have Jamaican curry powder, you can make your own by combining turmeric, cumin, coriander, allspice, and Scotch bonnet pepper. - Be sure to brown the chicken well before adding the curry powder. This will help to develop the flavor of the chicken. - Add more Scotch bonnet pepper to taste if you like your curry spicy. - Serve Jamaican curry chicken with rice, roti, or your favorite side dish.
