Raquel's Seasoned Salt

  • 2 tablespoons fine sea salt
  • 1 tablespoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cumin

Directions

  1. Rinse chicken in a large bowl with cold water and 1 tablespoon white vinegar. Pat dry with paper towels.
  2. In a large bowl, add chicken, pour salad dressing over and season with seasoned salt.
  3. In a large skillet, heat 1/2 cup of the garlic oil over medium-high heat. Add chicken parts and brown on both sides, about 3 minutes per side. Set aside on a plate.
  4. In a wide-bottom 6-quart (6 L) pot, heat 3 tablespoons of the reserved garlic oil over medium heat.
  5. Remove tough outer layers from lemongrass stalk and discard. Dice lemongrass and add to oil with onion and cook, stirring occasionally, for 3 minutes.
  6. Add tomatoes and cook for 3 minutes more. Add ketchup and pineapple soda and stir. Add hot stock and bring to a boil.
  7. Stir in bay leaf, Worcestershire sauce, browning, Scotch bonnet pepper and bring to a boil. Add chicken. Reduce heat to medium, cover with a lid that is slightly ajar, and cook for 25 minutes.
  8. Add bell peppers and coconut cream. Adjust seasoning and cook for 15 more minutes, or until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the meat registers 165°F (74°C). Serve over rice. Drizzle green vinaigrette over GoomBay Chicken.
