About Jamaican oxtail stew

Jamaican Oxtail Stew is a hearty, flavorful dish originating from Jamaican cuisine, celebrated for its rich, slow-cooked taste and tender oxtail meat. The dish typically includes oxtail, onions, garlic, carrots, butter beans, and a mix of bold spices like thyme, allspice, and Scotch bonnet peppers, creating a robust, aromatic profile. Often braised until the meat is fall-off-the-bone tender, the stew is traditionally served with rice or other starches. Oxtail is a good source of protein and collagen, which supports skin, joint, and bone health. The vegetables and herbs provide vitamins and antioxidants, while butter beans contribute fiber. However, it can be high in fat and calories due to the natural richness of the oxtail and added oils or gravies, making it a dish best enjoyed in moderation as part of a balanced diet.
