  • BROWN CHICKEN STEW INGREDIENTS

  • 2 tablespoons canola oil

  • 1 medium onion, diced

  • 2 teaspoons garlic, minced

  • 1 sprig of fresh thyme

  • 1 teaspoon of hot sauce

  • 1 ½ teaspoons paprika

  • 1 tablespoon brown sugar

  • 2 teaspoons browning sauce

  • 2 tablespoons ketchup

  • 2 small bell peppers, red or green, sliced

  • 1-2 cups water

Directions

  • 1. Place chicken in a resealable bag and season with salt and pepper. Then add the chicken bouillon powder, ginger, garlic, white pepper, thyme, paprika, and green onions. Seal the bag and thoroughly mix chicken until they are well coated. Set aside in the fridge and marinate for about at least an hour or preferably overnight.

    2. When ready to cook, remove the chicken from the bag. Make sure to remove any particles like the onions and garlic so they do not burn when cooking.

    3. Heat a large pot with the oil over medium-high heat.

    4. Brown the chicken about 3-4 minutes per side until chicken is a golden brown; remove and place on a plate. Drain any excess oil from the skillet but make sure to leave about 2-3 tablespoons of oil.

    6. Deglaze the pan with about 1 cup of water. Bring to a boil and return the chicken back to the pan. Add the second cup of water if you find there is not enough water.

    7. Cover and cook on medium to low heat for about 20 minutes, until chicken the chicken has cooked through and the sauce thickens, slightly. Adjust the taste adding more salt as necessary.

    8. Serve with Caribbean Rice and Peas or white rice.
