Steps:
- 1. Cut up the chicken into bite-size pieces, and place chicken pieces in a plastic ziplock bag.
- 2. Mix together the green onion, thyme, cilantro, celery, a few celery leaves, garlic, salt and black pepper. Use a spice grinder or mortal/pestle to crush it to a powder. Measure out about 3 Tbsp of the seasoning mix, and add it to the zip-lock bag with the chicken. Shake until chicken is well coated with the seasoning blend. Store in fridge for 30 minutes, to allow flavors to meld.
- 3. Heat oil in a large stock pot, add brown sugar and cook until sugar starts to turn a dark brown. Add seasoned chicken and cook about 3 to 4 minutes or until browned on all sides, turning occasionally for even browning.
- 4. Add the broth, the Scotch Bonnet pepper, onion, tomato and butter. Cover pot, cook over medium-low heat until chicken is tender and cooked through, about 45 minutes.
- 5. There should be a gravy-like sauce in the pan. If it gets too dry, add more broth (or water) to produce a thick gravy. Season with salt and pepper, and add more of the seasoning mix if desired. Serve the stew hot, ladled over steamed white rice.
