Serves:
Ingredients
- 1.5 lbs chicken pieces, bone-in and skin-on
- 2 tbsp Jamaican curry powder
- 1 tsp allspice
- 1 tsp paprika
- 1 tsp dried thyme
- 1 onion, sliced
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 scotch bonnet pepper, seeded and minced (optional for extra heat)
- 1 cup coconut milk
- 1 cup chicken broth
- 2 tbsp vegetable oil
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Fresh cilantro, for garnish
Instructions
-
In a large bowl, season the chicken pieces with curry powder, allspice, paprika, dried thyme, salt, and pepper. Mix well to coat the chicken evenly.
-
In a large pot or Dutch oven, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat. Add the chicken pieces and cook until browned on all sides, about 5 minutes. Remove the chicken from the pot and set aside.
-
In the same pot, add the sliced onion, minced garlic, and minced scotch bonnet pepper (if using). Cook until the onions are softened and translucent, about 5 minutes.
-
Return the chicken to the pot and pour in the coconut milk and chicken broth. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 30-40 minutes or until the chicken is cooked through and tender.
-
Taste and adjust seasonings if needed. If desired, remove the scotch bonnet pepper before serving.
-
Serve the Jamaican Style Curry Chicken hot, garnished with fresh cilantro. Serve with rice and peas or roti bread on the side.
