Zambian Chicken Stew Recipe

INGREDIENTS

7 pieces of chicken 

1 whole tomato 

½ large Onion 

½ Cup Vegetable Oil 

½ Cups water 

1 t/spoon Garlic Powder 

1 t/spoon Seasoned Salt 

1 t/spoon Onion Powder 

1 t/spoon Chicken Spice 

1 t/spoon Chicken Broth (powder) 

1/2 t/spoon Curry Powder 

METHOD

In a medium pot, add the chicken and the water. Let the chicken boil on medium heat for about 30 minutes. Remove from stove and let it cool.

Remove the chicken from the pot but don’t throw out the broth, we will need it later. 

Heat oil in a pan (I would suggest a non- stick pan). Once oil is heated, add the chicken and fry on both sides until golden brown. 

When the chicken is all fried, remove some of the oil from the pan and leave enough for the gravy.

Then use the same pan to fry the onions and the tomatoes. Once those are cooked, add the gravy to the broth that you set aside. 

Then start adding the seasonings. Once the seasonings are mixed in with the gravy, add the fried chicken to the gravy and let it simmer on medium low for about 30 minutes or so. 

The chicken will be ready once the gravy is thick. Enjoy!
