Jamaican Chicken Curry image

Curry is very popular in Jamaica. Their cuisine has been influenced by India. This is another dish we ate while in Jamaica at the home of a friend. Clovis was gracious enough to share the recipe with me.

Ingredients

2 Tbsp canola oil
4 large bone-in, skinless chicken breast halves, halved crosswise
kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
1 large onion, chopped
1 clove garlic, minced
1 tsp cumin, ground
3 Tbsp curry powder, preferably jamaican
1/2 tsp thyme, dried
4 large carrots, sliced thinly
4 large potatoes, diced
13 1/2 oz can coconut milk
10 oz peas, frozen petite, thawed
cooked white rice for serving

Steps:

1. 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.
2. 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.
3. Add carrots, potatoes, 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 20 minutes. Remove from heat and stir in peas. Serve curry over rice.
