Directions
- Season chicken to taste as you normally would.
- Grill chicken in a hot pan and then chop into one inch cubes. Chicken does not need to cook through: it just needs colour on the outside. Save any juices with the chicken.
- Chop the onions, pimentos and garlic and sautee in the 2 tbsp of oil until soft.
- Add all the ground spices, salt and pepper and stir quickly so they don’t burn. Add ½ cup of water with the tomato paste.
- Add the diced chicken and stir to coat.
- Simmer for 10 minutes until the chicken is cooked through, stirring every minute. Add a small amount of water if necessary. Do not let the chicken dry out.
- Add chopped fresh shadon beni and a sprinkle of lime juice before you serve.
