Calypso chicken

Calypso chicken is a traditional chicken stew originating from the Caribbean island of Dominica. The dish is usually made with a combination of chicken breast, onions, ginger, mushrooms, spices, red wine, and cashews. Although those are the most common ingredients, there are also variations on the dish, including ingredients such as pineapple, carrots, hot peppers, lime juice, and raisins. The chicken breasts are marinated in thyme, vinegar, garlic, salt, and pepper. They're then browned in a pan, the juices are deglazed with the wine and a bit of water, and the meat is boiled in the mixture until tender. It is then mixed with roasted cashews and sautéed vegetables. Once done, the dish is traditionally served over white rice.
