Jamaican Brown Stew Chicken Recipe - A spicy stew that includes tender pieces of browned chicken simmered with veggies in a thick gravy.

Jamaican Brown Stew Chicken

chicken thighs (or drumsticks)

chicken bouillon (or chicken base)

scallions

habanero peppers (seeded and minced)

garlic

thyme leaves

ginger

smoked paprika

black pepper

onion

carrots (sliced)

bell pepper

ketchup

brown sugar

browning seasoning

bay leaves

water

Place the chicken pieces in a large zip bag. Add the chicken bouillon, scallions, minced habanero, garlic, thyme, ginger, paprika, and black pepper. Zip the bag closed and massage the chicken pieces to coat with seasoning on all sides. Place the chicken in the refrigerator and chill for at least 2 hours. (You can marinate overnight if desired.)

Marinate the Chicken -

Set a large 7-8 quart dutch oven (or pot) over medium heat. Place the oil in the pot. Once hot, add the chicken pieces, and as much of the marinade seasoning as possible, into the pot. Brown the chicken pieces on both sides, rotating the pieces as needed. (This will go faster if you pot is wider like a dutch oven.)

Brown the Chicken -

Remove the chicken pieces and place on a holding plate. Add the chopped onion, carrots, and bell peppers to the pot. Sauté for 5 minutes to soften.

Move the chicken pieces back to the pot. Add the ketchup, brown sugar, browning seasoning, bay leaves and water. Stir well. Cover and simmer for 20 minutes.

Then remove the lid, stir and simmer another 10 to thicken the gravy. Taste, then salt and pepper as needed.

Make the Stew Base -

In a large bowl add in chicken along with 2 Tbsp oil, salt, pepper, onion, bell peppers, carrots, scallions, ginger, garlic, pimento berries, soy sauce, browning sauce, thyme, scotch bonnet pepper, all-purpose seasoning, smoked paprika. Use your hands (wear gloves while handling scotch bonnet pepper) to massage the chicken pieces well with spices and aromatics and make sure they are nicely coated.

Cover and marinate in the fridge for at least 2 hours, or overnight is the best.

When ready to cook, heat 2 Tbsp oil...

When ready to cook, heat 2 Tbsp oil in a large dutch oven over medium-high heat. Remove the chicken pieces from the marinade mixture, shaking off excess onion/bell pepper/scallion bits. Do not discard the marinade, set it aside. Sear the chicken pieces in batches without crowding on all sides, turning occasionally, until golden brown on all sides, about 10 minutes. Plate them out.

In the same pan, add all the veggies...

In the same pan, add all the veggies and aromatics from the marinade and cook them for 5-6 minutes until they begin to soften. Add back the chicken pieces along with all the reserved marinade liquids and 1 cup of water. Mix everything well. Cover and cook for 10 minutes.

Add in tomato ketchup and diced tomato, mix...

Add in tomato ketchup and diced tomato, mix and again cover and cook for 30-35 minutes, or until chicken is fall off the bone tender, stirring occasionally. During this time, if you like more sauce, you can add 1 or more cups of water. Taste and adjust for salt. Sometimes I like more soy sauce, so I stir in about 1 Tbsp additional soy sauce into the stew. Alternately, if you want thicker stew, you can cook it without the cover over medium high heat until the stew reaches your desired consistency.

Garnish it with chopped parsley and served immediately...

Garnish it with chopped parsley and served immediately with Jamaican rice and peas and stir fried Jamaican cabbage.
