Time 40m

Number Of Ingredients 9

3 tablespoons light brown sugar
1 ½ pounds boneless chicken thighs with skin, cut into 1 1/2-inch pieces and patted dry
1 (14 ounce) can unsweetened coconut milk
1 ½ cups water
1 cup coarsely chopped carrots
1 teaspoon salt
¼ teaspoon ground pepper
1 ½ cups cups cooked long-grain brown rice
1 (15 ounce) can pigeon peas, drained

Steps:

  • Place brown sugar in a large heavy pot. Cook over medium heat, tilting the pan to redistribute it occasionally, until it melts and starts to caramelize, about 3 minutes. (Take care not to let the sugar burn.) Add chicken and stir to coat. Add coconut milk, water, carrots, salt and pepper; bring to a simmer over medium-high heat. Reduce heat to maintain a simmer, cover and cook until the chicken is cooked through, about 20 minutes.
  • Stir in rice and peas. Cook, covered, until heated through, about 5 minutes.

TRINIDAD PELAU



Trinidad Pelau image

Pelau is a stew from Trinidad made with either beef or chicken. The unique flavor comes from searing the meat in caramelized sugar then simmering with rice, coconut milk, and pigeon peas. Serve accompanied by slices of tomato, avocadoes, or cucumber.

  • Place chicken in a large bowl, along with 1 sprig of thyme (reserve the other 3 for cooking), garlic salt, and black pepper. Stir to coat the chicken with the seasonings, cover and place in the fridge for 30 minutes (or overnight).
  • Once oil is hot (but not smoking) pour the sugar into the pot in an even layer and allow to caramelize. The sugar will melt and bubble as it caramelizes. Do not stir the sugar, but do watch it carefully to look for the change in colour.Wait until the sugar just starts to turn dark brown in colour (not black!), then carefully add chicken to the pot and stir to coat with the "burnt" sugar. Use caution - hot sugar can burn you quite badly!
