Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350º.
- Boil the whole chayotes in salted water until tender, about 30 minutes. Drain and cool enough to handle. Halve the chayotes lengthwise and scoop out the interior, including the edible seed, and mash with a fork. Set the shells aside.
- Heat the butter in a skillet over moderate heat and saute the onion and garlic until tender but not brown, about 5 minutes. Add the mashed chayote, tomatoes, hot pepper, curry powder, salt & pepper and cook, stirring frequently, for about 5 minutes.
- Spoon the mixture into the reserved chayote shells and sprinkle with bread crumbs and Parmesan cheese. Dot with butter and bake until lightly browned, about 15 minutes.

- Jamaican Oxtail. Who would’ve thought oxtail could be so tasty? If you’ve never worked with it before, now is the time to try. It has some extra fat, which produces an even richer flavor stock, and when slow-cooked, some argue it’s more tender than other cuts of beef.
- Jamaican Steamed Cabbage. Cabbage is an inexpensive side that can be found in most countries. But this colorful variation from Jamaica is definitely one of my faves.
- Jamaican Hot Pepper Shrimp. This fiery dish is not for the faint of heart. Dicing the peppers means the flavor gets all over the shrimp, so there’s no escaping it.
- Jamaican Jerk Marinade. I know we all look for shortcuts, but marinating your meat goes a long way in terms of great flavor. You can even make up a big batch and freeze down some meat (once it’s sat in the marinade), making the next meal a little quicker.
- Jamaican Callaloo. Callaloo is similar to spinach and gets cooked with onion, tomatoes, green onions, and, you guessed it, a Scotch bonnet pepper! Collard greens make a great alternative if you can’t find callaloo.
- Jerk Chicken. When making jerk chicken, it’s always a good idea to use things and legs with the bone in. The dark meat pairs so much better with the powerful spices, and these cuts are always juicier.
- Jamaican Curry Chicken. Jamaican curry might look similar to some Asian curries you’re used to, and it uses many of the same ingredients, including coconut milk.
- Jamaican Carrot Juice. You won’t believe me until you try it, but Jamaican carrot juice is unbelievably delicious. Made with condensed milk and spices (cinnamon, ginger, and nutmeg), it’s creamy and can also be made with coconut milk for a nuttier flavor.
- Rice and Peas. Simple but so effective, this recipe is loaded with flavor and is the perfect pairing for jerk chicken! Though the dish is known as rice and peas, it’s actually made with kidney beans.
- Jamaican Beef Patties. Much like the empanada or British Cornish pasty, Jamaica has its own version of a beef filled hand pie. Though many of the ingredients are similar to a Cornish pasty – beef, onion, carrot, etc.
