How to Make Curry Chicken Caribbean Style

By


CURRY CHICKEN INGREDIENTS

  • 2- 3 tablespoons vegetable oil
  •  3 lbs of chicken brest, cut into pieces or use whole chicken parts
  • 1 large onion, diced
  • 6 cloves garlic, minced
  • 4 large potatoes - peeled and cubed
  • Salt to taste
  • 1/4 cup Curry powder - I like Jamican curry powder
  • 1 whole hot pepper- if kids are eating this meal don't put the hot pepper


DIRECTIONS

  1. Heat the oil in a large pot over medium-high heat. Saute the chicken, onions, and garlic until the chicken has browned; about 5-7 minutes. Put in potatoes, salt, and curry powder; stir pot add enough water to cover the chicken halfway. Cover, and simmer until tender, 30 to 40 minutes. Season to taste with hot pepper sauce. A true West Indian adds one whole Hot Pepper in the pot and lets is simmer to get the spicy taste. Yummy!

yeap that is it - very simple to make and it's oh so tasting especially with the hot pepper added. Warning if you don't like spicy skip the hot pepper.

Hi I'm an Hispanic gonna b making curry chicken for the first time. I had to look in a couple of stores in order to find the Jamaican curry bc my Jamaican friend told me NOT to buy the curry from India bc it stinks n it's different. I noticed that too. I mean when I've smelled curry chicken cooked Indian style it smells much more stronger n lingers not in a good way than the caribbean style. Why is that?

I was reading all these comments about curry chicken. I use to prepare it all the time, but nowadays you cannot find the genuine curry. New York is the best because their are a lot of Jamaican live there and I had a lot of Jamaican friends. In Va.i found the Jamaica-Jamaician brand also. Where can I find it here in Temple Texas? I would like to have it ready for THANKSGIVING. Something different of course,besides turkey and ham. Still having that too.

This was a great, straight to the point recipe! I love curry chicken, but have never tried to make it. I just got finished making it! I don't like runny dishes so I made my meat and potato cubes bigger so I could let them simmer longer. Instead of hot pepper sauce, I put dried chinese peppers (three to be exact). It's HOT! Lol. Good but hot! And for reference, my curry is Rosa Maria Jamacian Curry. Hope that helps anyone still looking for curry.

you can do curry with just vegetables, like pumpkin, fresh green beans, chick peas, sweet peppers. All are yummy

The recipe is a winner. I made this last night for a New Year's party, and the guests were licking their fingers!!! I added Old Bay, lemon pepper by Mrs. Dash, and 1 jalapeño and 4 banana peppers for taste.

This was the first time I made curry chicken and it came out sooo good. I just added some of my own seasonings and its perfect! Kudos to you :)

I made this today and it turned out much better than when I made it previously. The type of curry really makes a difference. My coworker gave me some that her family brought her from the islands and you only need a small amount. This is the real deal curry. I used less than 3 table spoons in my entire pot. Previously I used half the container of the other curry powder. I followed these instructions and it came out great. The next time I will include the red pepper. I was scared because I don't want it yo be really hot. I just want a little spice kick. Maybe some cayanne pepper??
