Belize
Ask what Belize eats and the answer starts with this: creole, Garifuna, and Maya flavors: coconut rice and beans, fresh seafood, and morning fry jacks. Look for Stew chicken with rice and beans (recado-browned chicken with coconut rice and beans; national plate), Fry jacks (puffy fried dough triangles with beans, eggs, or jam) and Hudut (garifuna coconut fish stew with mashed plantains). Belize’s everyday plate: chicken browned in recado rojo and served over rice cooked in coconut milk with red beans, a Creole Sunday standard. This atlas has 30 Belize dishes catalogued below, from everyday cooking to food kept for festivals and special occasions.
