Saucy, Spicy and Simply Delicious. Over the years I’ve shared several pepper shrimp recipes with you all, based on my experiences and general love for this spicy seafood dish. There’s my Classic Island Pepper Shrimp, my Memories of Korea Pepper Shrimp, the Jamaican Pepper Shrimp after a trip to the island and even a Fried…
In previous recipes I’ve shared why we have such a strong Chinese influence on the culinary landscape of the Caribbean. Especially in Trinidad and Tobago, Jamaica, Guyana and the other islands of the region where the decedents of Chinese indentured laborers call home. As the title suggest, this is a SPICY dish and it’s based…
Another Pepper Shrimp recipe Chris? Yea, it’s definitely one of my weaknesses when it comes to snacking. We’ve gone though about 4 different styles of pepper shrimp to date, but I must admit that this one is my absolute favorite. And to be quite honest, it’s not only super easy to make, it’s also super-quick to put together. On it’s own as a snack, as a side to fried rice or stir fried noodles or on sandwiches, you’ll love this shrimp recipe. You can be the BOSS when it comes to how HOT you make it.
Tehya and I had the pleasure of being hosted by the City and Mayor of Seoul Korea a couple years ago and it was one of the most amazing culinary and cultural experiences we’ve ever had. You know a trip is starting off on a good note, when on your 14hr flight your first meal comes with a tube of peppersauce (Gochujang)! A rich, deep pepper paste with a hint of fermentation, balanced by the gentle heat of the peppers and an undertone of soy (sauce). This recipe is in memory of the beautiful people f Korea and the way the City of Seoul catered to our many senses and opened the door for my awareness of the rich culinary culture of Asia.
The call went out via the Facebook Fan Page a couple days back and within seconds I had a delicious sounding recipe, rearing to go for Jamaican style pepper shrimp. Last Spring after we came back from of Jamaican trek, one of the first questions I got asked was “did you try any pepper shrimp?”…
Pepper Chicken is one of those recipes that delivers big flavor, serious heat, and plenty of texture in every bite. While Pepper Shrimp is one of the top recipes on my website, I am confident this Incredible Pepper Chicken will quickly become a favorite as well. Both are equally tantalizing, and after sharing a sneak…
If you've been around caribbeanpot.com/ for a while, you'll know we've done Shrimp Fried Rice before, but that version was cooked indoors in a wok. This time, we’re taking things outside and firing up the Traeger Flatrock griddle to make this incredible Jerk Shrimp Fried Rice. The intense heat from the hot griddle gives everything…
I’ve always had a soft spot for butternut squash, and this year, when I visited my dad’s garden in Toronto (you would have seen the ‘story’ on my Instagram), he had a bumper crop of pumpkins and squash waiting to be harvested. That inspired me to revisit a Caribbean classic—butternut squash with shrimp. If you’ve…
A TrinBago-Inspired Chinese Takeout Classic Recreated at Home This Quick Shrimp & Bok Choy Stir Fry takes me right back to a trip I made to Trinidad and Tobago with my sister. She treated me to takeout from a popular Chinese restaurant in Penal, a small town in southern Trinidad, and the flavors left a…
Growing up in San Fernando, Trinidad and Tobago, one of my favourite memories was heading down to Mucurapo Street for a quick Chinese lunch before catching a Kung Fu movie with my dad and brother. Back then, the dish was usually a chicken stir-fry served family-style, full of bold oyster sauce flavours that soaked up…
A refreshing shrimp ceviche loaded with citrus, herbs, mango, and avocado.
About 12 years ago, I made a similar Pepper Chicken recipe when I competed in a global cooking competition in Seoul, South Korea. Yet, I cannot believe I’ve never shared this recipe with you until now. We’ve done Pepper Crab, Lemon Pepper Wings, Caribbean Pepper Calamari, Pepper Lobster, Pepper Wings, and Pepper Shrimp, to name a few. But never this one.
