Typically served with rice and beans, it’s a beloved comfort food in Belizean households.

Origin Belizean Chicken Stew

A staple in Belizean cuisine, this stew is a flavorful blend of Caribbean and Central American influences. It’s known for its signature red hue, which comes from annatto (recado rojo), a spice mix commonly used in Belizean cooking.

What I Love About This Recipe

It’s hearty, comforting, and bursting with deep, earthy flavor. I love how the chicken absorbs all the spices, and the sauce pairs perfectly with coconut rice or stewed beans. It’s an easy one-pot meal that brings big flavor.
