Bringing bold Hawaiʻi-inspired flavor to the kitchen doesn’t have to be complicated. Kaʻiulani Cowell of Kai Spices recently joined HI Now to demonstrate an easy, flavorful Chicken Curry with Kauaʻi Shrimp and share how the right spice blends can transform everyday ingredients into a memorable meal.
The dish combines tender chicken, Kauaʻi shrimp, creamy coconut milk, fresh vegetables, and the distinctive flavors of Kaʻiulani Curry Spice and Kaʻiulani Hawaiian Spice. It’s colorful, comforting, full of flavor, and simple enough to prepare at home.

The combination of chicken and local Kauaʻi shrimp gives the dish plenty of substance, while coconut milk creates a smooth, creamy base. Kai Spices adds layers of warm, aromatic flavor that bring the entire recipe together.
