Caribbean Chicken Curry With Rice And Peas Recipes

Steps:

• Heat the oil in a very large non-stick frying pan and cook the onions for 5 mins or until soft. Meanwhile, coat the chicken thoroughly with the thyme, curry powder and allspice. Add to the pan and briefly brown the chicken, then tip in the tomatoes, chilli, garlic and bouillon. Pour over 450ml water, cover and simmer for 30 mins or until the chicken is tender.
• Meanwhile, tip the rice into a medium-sized pan with the onion, garlic, thyme and bouillon. Pour in 600ml water, cover and cook for 25 mins or until the liquid has been absorbed and the rice is tender. Check toward the end of the cooking time to ensure it isn't starting to catch on the pan. Stir in the beans and heat through. If you're following our Healthy Diet Plan, serve half the rice with half the chicken (saving the leftovers for a second meal later in the week). Otherwise you can serve four portions, scattered with a few extra thyme leaves, if you like.

Steps:

• Cut up the chicken, trim the fat and skin.
• Wash the chicken with the lemon juice and drain.
• Combine the chicken parts with the onions, garlic, poultry seasoning, salt, and pepper in a bowl and marinate for 2 hours.
• Heat a stew pot on medium heat and then add the oil and curry powder.
• Once the curry has darkened (do not burn), add the chicken and onions and brown chicken on all sides.
• Add the water then cover and simmer for 10 minutes.
• Add the potatoes.
• Cover and simmer for about 30 to 40 minutes.
• Serve over hot rice.
