Trinidad Curry powder is the Caribbean style curry powder, is very popular in Trinidad and used in every possible food from meats to vegetables and fruits. Trinidad curry powders tend to be a bit mild (due to the lack of hot chilies). Hot pepper sauces are often used to “spice up” Trinidadian dishes.
Ingredients: Turmeric, Black pepper, Coriander, Cumin, Ginger, Nutmeg, Cinnamon, Cardamom and Allspice.

Then mix in 2-3tbsp curry powder, pulse again to make a smooth paste. Rub the paste on 10-12 pieces cleaned and washed chicken thighs, cover and refrigerate for an hour. In a cooking pot heat 3-4tbsp cooking oil, add the marinated chicken pieces, cook on medium heat until chicken pieces are browned.
