Had “sun is shining” chicken curry at Bob Marley’s in FL. The chicken was grilled and the curry sauce was spooned on top. Was wondering what the receipe for this most excellent dish would be. Anyone have an idea?

A stimulating discussion is worth comment. I consider that be certain to write more on this topic, it may not be a taboo subject but generally people are not enough to talk on such topics. For the next. Cheers

@TK there are a lot of good Jamaican Resturants in New York and in Brooklyn
try in flatbush and yes different people prepare their food differently I am american but my ex- husband is Jamaican but friends and family love my meals so i cook cause i enjoy doing so . living all over in different states and other countries i have learned how to cook. the best way to learn how to cook the food is to watch first hand on how someone prepares it.

Definitely a no no for the tomato paste in the curry!! You can add ground allspice (pimento) to the list of seasonings to be used, as well as a sprig of fresh time to season the chicken overnight. Curry is not curry, the best curry to use is Betapac Curry, alot of the Jamaican restaurants in Florida, NY, NJ, and England only use Betapac Curry powder. Use it once and you’ll only want to use this brand!

Guys you are right they did forget the seasoning that you marinate the chicken in. You ever even mention pimento, scallion garlic all of the nice stuff that Vince mentioned. My family is all mixed up and i have had curry many ways Jamaican for my mom Trini for the Aunts that were married in and Chinese for the uncles and Authentic East Indian style for my families and Ancestors…. We have never used paste… One of my aunts puts a tip of Ketchup and it makes it nice but its the kind that is a little sweet. My trinidadian aunt browns sugar before she adds the curry and chicken which has also been marinating in curry… but you everything is trial and error and every culture is slightly different which is also great!!!! Anyway I am still happy you posted the recipe so everyone can post theyre input and I can find out the best way to make it

Don’t know if you’ve found a restaurant yet TK but here is an online site where you can order Jamaica curry powder and lots of other stuff as well

Hope that helps.

Not sure who’s publishing these recipes but some of them do seem to leave out some of the elements of real Jamaican home cooking or assumed them e.g. seasoning (marinade) the meat but I guess it’s a start and the food will still taste decent.

Matt you were wrong, Vince you’re quite right. Curry is curry and tomato sauce wouldn’t be used in it, not in Jamaican curry at any rate. I’ve come to eat a lot of Indian curry and they use tomatoes in some of their curries.

ps. I think getting good jamaican curry is part of the secret? if you know what brand i might order? by the way: the curry chick I loved was in a sauce (it seemed as if it had stewed for hours but maybe not), with only a few pieces of vegetables and potatoes.

please help! when i lived in nyc i ate at a wonderful jamaican restaurant in downtown brooklyn every day for years-cury chicken, rice and peas w/plaintains. now in northern calif I can’t find good jamaican food anywhere, and all the recipes ive tried are terrible. if someone has a truly awesome curry chicken w/peas and rice recipe, I would be eternally, genuinely, incredibly grateful. If I could, I’d fly to brooklyn or jamaica tonite, just to eat. I really really really love this food, and even have dreams about it. i know how to make the plaintains, but not the chicken and rice

Curry and tomato do not go together……..We Jamaicans used lots of spice , we wash our chicken with lemon juice not cook with it……..you need onions , seasoning salt, black pepper, thyme , pepper and a whole lot more that i have no time to mention, and with all that spice you have no need to wait over night…….5 to 10 min and you are good to go

Well, I’m pretty sure the “spices” refers to the curry powder.
I don’t see how one could missunderstand tese directions…

You say season chicken with spices, you should add what type of spices, everyone may not kow what your talking about. Complete info is the key.
