7 tablespoons island all-purpose seasoning, or your favorite seasoned salt

Brown Stew:

1/2 cup soy sauce

6 tablespoons browning

6 tablespoons barbecue sauce

6 tablespoons sugar

5 tablespoons island all-purpose seasoning or your favorite seasoned salt

4 tablespoons ketchup

4 tablespoons teriyaki pineapple glaze sauce, such as Kikkoman Baste & Glaze with Honey & Pineapple

3 tablespoons paprika

8 cloves garlic

4 green onions

2 habaneros

1 medium onion

Oil, for deep-frying

6 tablespoons cornstarch

6 tablespoons cold water

Directions

Special equipment:
a deep-fryer
  1. For the chicken: Marinate the chicken with the island seasoning, refrigerated, for 24 hours.
  2. For the brown stew: Place the soy sauce, browning, barbecue sauce, sugar, island seasoning, ketchup, teriyaki glaze, paprika, garlic, green onions, habaneros and onion in a blender with 2 cups water. Blend.
  3. Bring 6 quarts water to a boil. Pour the mixture from the blender out into the water and boil for 30 minutes on medium heat.
  4. Fry the chicken in a deep fryer at 350 degrees F until golden brown, 5 to 6 minutes. Remove and drain the excess oil. Add the fried chicken to the boiling brown stew sauce. Cook for 10 to 15 minutes.
  5. In a bowl, mix the cornstarch and cold water together until you have a slurry consistency. Pour the slurry slowly into the stew and simmer for about 5 minutes.
