Influenced by Indian and Southeast Asian curries, Jamaican curry has adopted its own uniquely zesty taste. This Jamaican chicken curry recipe owes its fieriness to Scotch bonnet chili peppers and gets its interesting sweetish taste from sweet potatoes. This exotic dish can either be a simple hearty dinner or a star on the party menu that won't fail to impress your guests on special occasions.
Ingredients (for about 4 servings) - 3 tbsp Jamaican curry powder, 8 - 10 chicken thighs, 1 large sweet potato (peeled and cut into big chunks), 1 tbsp vegetable oil, 1/2 tsp ground allspice, 2 tsp minced garlic, 1 tbsp minced ginger root, 1/2 cup thinly sliced green onions, 1 Scotch bonnet pepper (minced), 2 cups chicken broth, 1/2 tsp salt
