Trini Style Chicken Pelau (2.5 litres - Serves 4-5 people)

Chicken Pelau is a classic one-pot dish from Trinidad and Tobago, loved for its comforting, home-cooked flavor. It combines seasoned chicken that’s first browned in caramelized sugar (a technique called “burnt sugar” or browning), then simmered with rice, pigeon peas, and aromatic herbs. Coconut milk, fresh thyme, garlic, onions, and hot peppers add layers of richness, creaminess, and spice.

The result is a savory, slightly smoky, and deeply flavorful dish where the rice soaks up all the juices from the chicken and spices. It’s a staple of Caribbean cooking — hearty, nourishing, and perfect for gatherings with family and friends.

In short: a wholesome, caramelized chicken and rice dish that captures the true taste of Trinidad & Tobago.
