Authentic Bajan Brown Stew Chicken Recipe
Tutor: Join Mike Springer, award-winning Caribbean chef and owner of Big Mike’s Calypso Kitchen, Croydon
Join Mike, AKA Big Mike, as he shows us how to make a delicious, traditional Barbadian curry-like dish which serves 4 people. Combining tender chicken with warming spices and the deep, savoury flavours of Caribbean cooking, this dish is full of heart and heritage. It’s gently spiced, rich in flavour, and made with everyday ingredients you’ll likely already have at home.
This simple, tasty recipe only takes 30 minutes to cook, making it a perfect mid-week meal, or easy dinner party recipe. Ideal if you'd like to try something new, or if you're missing the taste of your family's Caribbean cooking.
For that truly traditional feel, serve with roti, plain basmati rice or rice and peas.
