1

Start by marinating chicken breast with chicken spice seasoning, Jamaica Valley chicken seasoning, all-purpose seasoning, and Barons curry powder.

2

Heat oil in a pot over medium-high heat and brown the chicken for 5-10 minutes.

3

In a separate bowl, mix 2.5 cups of flour with 2 tablespoons of vegetable oil and warm water until a dough forms.

4

Divide the dough into balls and flatten them out, then let them rest for 20 minutes.

5

Add chopped potatoes to a separate pot with water and cook until tender.

6

Once the chicken is browned, reduce heat and add water to the pot to create a curry sauce, cooking for 20-30 minutes.

7

After the chicken is cooked, add the potatoes to the curry before serving it with the roti.
