Curry Chicken Hearts And Liver
Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 medium onion (sliced)
- 7 cloves garlic (smashed)
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- 3/4 tablespoon Garam masala
- 1 1/2 tablespoons Caribbean Green Seasoning
- 1 3/4 tablespoons curry powder (madras blend)
- 2-2 2 1/2 cups water (divided)
- 1 small tomato (diced)
- 3/4 tablespoon salt
- 1 Scotch Bonnet pepper
- 1 lemon (juice)
- 1 lb chicken hearts (sliced 1/2)
- 1 lb chicken liver (1 1/2 inch pieces)
- 1 teaspoon Amchar Masala (or ground roasted cumin)
- 2 tablespoons chopped parsley
Method
- Heat the oil on a medium flame in a wide pan and add the onion, garlic, and black pepper. Reduce the heat and cook for 3 minutes before adding the Caribbean Green Seasoning and Garam Masala. Cook for another 3 minutes on low.
- Add the curry powder and stir until well combined. Cook for 3 minutes, then turn the heat to medium and add 3/4 cup water. Stir in the tomato, salt, and Scotch Bonnet pepper. Bring to a rolling boil and cook for 4-5 minutes.
- Do not cover the pan as we want to burn off that liquid. In the video, I explained how I achieved separation when I passed my spoon across the bottom of the pan, meaning all the liquid was gone. Both the chicken hearts and liver were washed with the juice of a lemon and cool water, then drained. At this point, add the chicken hearts to the pot and stir well to coat with the curry base we created.
- Add 1 1/2 cups of water to the pot, bring to a boil, then reduce the heat to a simmer and cook for 25 minutes.
- It’s now time to add the liver to the pan and stir gently. As it comes back to a boil, reduce to a simmer, add the Anchar Masala, and cook for 5-7 minutes.
- Everything should be fully cooked at this point, so you may taste and adjust the salt to your liking. Top with the chopped parsley. Were I in the Caribbean, I’d use chopped culantro (also known as Chadon Beni) instead, and the other option is chopped coriander (also known as cilantro).
