Recipe of the Week: Jamaican Chicken Stew


What a wonderful dish to have on a crisp fall evening with your family! Enjoy :)

Ingredients
1 cup uncooked long-grain rice
2 teaspoons olive oil
1 cup chopped onion
1 1/2 teaspoons bottled minced garlic
1 pound skinned, boned chicken breast, cut into bite-size pieces
1 teaspoon curry powder
1 teaspoon dried thyme
1/2 teaspoon ground allspice
1/2 teaspoon crushed red pepper
1/2 teaspoon cracked black pepper
1/4 cup dry red wine (I substitute grape juice)
2 tablespoons capers (optional)
1 (15-ounce) can black beans, rinsed and drained
1 (14.5-ounce) can diced tomatoes, undrained

Preparation

Prepare rice according to package directions, omitting salt and fat.

While rice cooks, heat oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add onion and garlic; sauté 3 minutes or until tender. Combine chicken and the next 5 ingredients (chicken through black pepper) in a bowl. Add chicken mixture to pan; sauté 4 minutes. Stir in wine, capers, beans, and tomatoes. Cover, reduce heat, and simmer 10 minutes or until tender. Serve over rice.
