Jerk Chicken Stew
in a Crock Pot

Ingredients

• 4 Cups Chicken Stock
• 1 Bottle Beer, I used Boulevard Nut Cracker, the heavier the better.
• 1/4 Cup Vinegar
• 4 TBS Butter
• 1 Medium Onion, Chopped, but Large pieces
• 4 Cloves Garlic, minced
• 4 TBS Flour
• 4 Ribs Celery, Sliced
• 4 Medium Carrots, Sliced
• 3 Medium Sweet Potatoes, Chopped, but large chunks
• 2 Leg/Thigh Quarters From a Rotisserie Chicken, meat removed and chopped into large chunks
• 4 TBS Jerk Spice mix

Cooking Directions

1. Fire up the Crock Pot. I was doing an 8 hour cook session, so I set the machine on Low. If I was doing a 4 hour cook, I would set on High.
2. Add the Chicken Stock, Beer and Vinegar.
3. Meanwhile, Over medium high heat, in a heavy skillet, melt the butter.
4. Add the Onion chunks and saute for 5 minutes, until the onion has softened and become translucent.
5. After 5 minutes, add the garlic and saute another minute.
6. Add the Flour to the butter/onion mixture to make a thickening roux. Stir continuously for 3 minutes.
7. Transfer the onion/roux to the crock pot liquid, stir.
8. Add the Carrots and Celery and stir.
9. Add the sweet potatoes and stir.
10. Cover and leave for 8 hours.
11. 1 Hour before serving, remove the chicken meat from the bones, dice into chunks and roll the chicken through the jerk spices to coat.
12. Add this to the crock pot, stir. Cover and allow to simmer for another hour.
13. Serve HOT and Enjoy!
