Ingredients

3 lb chicken Thighs and Legs

2 tsp salt

2 tsp pepper

2 tsp onion powder

2 tsp Garlic powder

½ tsp all spice

2 tsp smoked paprika

1 tbsp Browning

5 cloves of garlic minced

1 inch of ginger minced

1 - 2 scotch bonnets (or habanero) diced

3 stalks of scallions chopped

5 sprigs of Thyme

1 Red Onion Chopped

1 Green Bellpepper Chopped

3 tbsp neutral oil

2 cups of Chicken Broth

2 tbsp ketchup

Directions

Step 1

Season the Chicken with salt, pepper, garlic and onion powder, all spice and smoked paprika. Add in the browning and give this a mix. Add in the chopped Onions and Bell peppers along with the scotch bonnet and scallions. Mix together and marinate for at least an hour preferably 24 hours.

Step 2

Remove the Chicken from the peppers. Heat the oil in a Dutch oven and sear the chicken for 3 minutes per side. Remove the chicken and add in the peppers and sauté for about 5 minutes. Add a splash of chicken broth and deglaze the bottom of pot with a wooden spoon. Add the chicken back to the pot and pour in the chicken broth. Add in the ketchup, stir and bring this to a simmer. Cover and let cook for about 30 minutes until the gravy is reduced and chicken is cooked through. If thicker gravy is desired add a cornstarch slurry of 1 tbsp cornstarch and 2tbsp water mixed together.

Step 3

This goes perfect with Rice and peas and cabbage.
