Stewed Chicken

Meet Stewed Chicken, the dish that sums up everything good about Grenadian home cooking. Chicken is browned until burnished, then left to bubble away with curry powder, thyme, tomatoes and a handful of bright vegetables until it falls apart at the touch of a fork. It is slow food in the best sense, unhurried, generous and full of the warm, spicy character of the Caribbean. Serve it over rice or pasta and dinner turns into an island escape.

Stewed Chicken

Meet Stewed Chicken, the warm-hearted national dish of Saint Lucia. Tender pieces of chicken simmer slowly with onion, garlic, sweet peppers and carrots until the sauce turns glossy and deeply savoury, carrying the island's signature notes of thyme and cumin. It is the kind of one-pot cooking that fills a kitchen with anticipation, simple enough for a weeknight, generous enough for a celebration, and always best shared around a crowded table.
