Stuu Chikin Day

The backbone of the Belizean plate. Chicken browned in recado and simmered low until the meat falls off the bone and the gravy is thick enough to stand a spoon in. Served over rice and beans with potato salad and fried plantain. This is the meal that says home more than any other and every Belizean mother makes it better than any restaurant.

A day for umbrellas, towels by the door, backup shoes, covered stalls, and the local wisdom of wet weather.
