💡 Conseils de pro
- ✓For a richer flavor, you can marinate the chicken in spices and herbs for at least 30 minutes before browning.
- ✓If you can't find fresh callaloo, frozen chopped callaloo can be used. Add it during the last 15-20 minutes of cooking.
- ✓Adjust the heat by using more or less of the Scotch bonnet pepper, or by removing the seeds and membranes.
