2 lb chicken breasts, -- cut in

3 TB Paul Prudhomme's Poultry
: Magic
1 lb unsalted butter
1/2 c chopped green peppers
1/4 c chopped celery
1/3 c chopped yellow onion
1/3 c chopped green onion
1 Habanero or Scotch Bonnet

2 TB Jamaican jerk sauce
1 pn black pepper
1 pn white pepper
1 pn red pepper flakes
1 pn salt
1 ts dry jerk seasoning
1/2 c vegetable oil
1/2 c flour
1 qt heavy cream
2 c chicken stock
1/3 c tomato sauce
1/3 c tasso or smoked ham

Season the chicken pieces with Poultry Magic. Melt 1/2
pound butter in a 4-quart saucepan. Add the chicken
pieces and saute until cooked, about 7 minutes. Remove
the chicken and drain it on paper towels. Pour off the
butter from the saucepan and then add all the
vegetables and seasonings. Cook over low heat,
stirring occasionally, until the vegetables soften,
about 10 to 15 minutes.

As the vegetables soften, make a roux. Heat the
vegetable oil until it begins to smoke. Reduce the
heat and add a small amount of flour and stir to
combine. Keep adding the flour in small amounts until
all the flour is incorporated with the oil and the
flour mixture is caramel colored. Stir constantly to
keep the roux from scorching.

When the vegetables have softened, add the cream,
chicken stock, tomato sauce, cooked chicken and tasso.
Cook until the liquid has reduced by half. Add the
roux, one tablespoon at a time until the mixture has
thickened moderately. Stir in the rest of the butter,
one tablespoon at a time, until incorporated. Serve
over a large square of cornbread.

Yield: 4 servings
