This video will show you the jamaican technique of making curry chicken. Traditionally, other islands with heavy Indian influence tend to toast or burn their curry first before adding their chicken, but other islands, including Jamaica season the chicken with curry and cook thoroughly! It still tastes great!
I used a 3 curry spice blend for this recipe and these are estimations so watch the video carefully:
During seasoning for approx 5 lbs dark meat chicken:
1.5 tsp of adobo
1.5 tsp maggi chicken seasoning
1.5 tsp onion and garlic powder
2 tbsp of Chief’s curry powder
2 tbsp of Jamaican Choice curry powder
2 tbsp of Betapac curry powder
2 medium sized potatoes cut into 1 inch cubes
1 carrot sliced into coins
1/2 onion chopped
4 garlic cloves chopped
1 tbsp corn oil
1/2 cup water
1 scotch bonnet pepper (optional)
Few sprigs of thyme
Cooking time: 1 hr 15 minutes
