Stewing is a three-step process: Brown the meat, add aromatics, seasonings, and a generous amount of liquid, and then simmer on the top of the stove until the chicken is tender.

Time 40m

Number Of Ingredients 12

2 tablespoons vegetable oil
4 bone-in, skinless chicken breast halves (10 to 12 ounces each), halved crosswise
Coarse salt and ground pepper
1 medium onion, chopped
1 garlic clove, minced
1 teaspoon ground cumin
3 tablespoons curry powder (preferably Jamaican)
1/2 teaspoon dried thyme
4 carrots, thinly sliced
1 can (13.5 ounces) coconut milk
1 package (10 ounces) frozen peas, thawed
Cooked white rice, for serving

Steps:

  • In a large Dutch oven or heavy pot, heat oil over medium-high. Season chicken with salt and pepper. Working in two batches, brown chicken, 3 to 4 minutes per side. Transfer to a plate.
  • Reduce heat to medium. Add onion, garlic, cumin, curry, thyme, and 1/2 cup water and season with salt. Cook, stirring occasionally, until onion has softened, 3 to 5 minutes.
  • Add carrots, coconut milk, 1/2 cup water, and chicken with any accumulated juices. Bring to a boil. Reduce to a simmer, cover partially, and cook until chicken is cooked through and carrots are tender, about 10 minutes. Remove from heat and stir in peas. Serve curry over rice.
