Brown Stew Chicken

45 MIN · EASY 2 SERVINGS

Brown Stew Chicken

Tender chicken in a rich, savoury gravy. Full of flavour, gentle on spice.

Ingredients

  • 4 skin-on chicken thighs or drumsticks
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 tsp onion powder
  • 1 tsp dried herbs (thyme works well)
  • 1½ tbsp Stush Brown Stew Cooking Paste
  • 1 cup warm water
  • 1 medium onion, sliced
  • 1 sweet pepper, sliced
  • 1 tsp cornstarch mixed with 2 tbsp water
  • Optional: 1 tsp ketchup for a touch of sweetness
  • Optional: salt to taste (the paste is already seasoned)

Preparation

  1. Season the chicken with garlic powder, onion powder and herbs. 
    Let it sit for 20 minutes, or longer if you have time.
  2. Place the chicken skin-side down in a cold pan, then turn the heat to medium. As the pan heats, the skin releases its own fat, so no oil is needed. Sear until golden on both sides, then remove.
  3. Mix the Stush Brown Stew Paste with the warm water. It’s concentrated, so a little goes a long way. Pour it into the pan and scrape up all the brown bits.
  4. Return the chicken to the pan and add the onion and sweet pepper. Cover and simmer for 15–20 minutes, until the chicken is cooked through.
  5. Stir in the cornstarch mixture and cook for a few more minutes, until the gravy thickens.
  6. Taste and add salt only if needed. Add a little ketchup for sweetness if you like.
  7. Serve with rice, rice & peas or root vegetables and a salad of your choice. Enjoy!
