Ingredients
Directions
- Cut up chicken into pieces. Peel and cut up potato, carrots, ginger, and cut up the scallion and scotch bonnet pepper. Set aside.
- Whisk together 2 tablespoons curry powder, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, thyme leaves, allspice, and pepper in a bowl. Coat chicken evenly with the curry mixture.
- Heat oil and remaining 2 tablespoons curry powder in a large cast-iron skillet over high heat until hot and curry powder changes color, about 2 to 3 minutes. Add chicken, reduce heat to medium, and add water, potato, carrots, scallions, ginger, and scotch bonnet pepper.
- Cover and simmer until chicken is no longer pink in the center and gravy has thickened, about 30 to 40 minutes. For the last 15 minutes, allow chicken to cook undisturbed. Check that an instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part reads 165°F. Serve chicken with thickened gravy, ideally with white rice.
