Have you lost your mind!! Pa gen komunyon san marinade! (You can\u2019t have a first communion without marinade!)<\/p>\n<p>For many Haitian families, mine included, marinades are an intrinsic part of any first communion reception. You simply cannot have one without the other.<\/p>\n<p>When I use the word marinades, I am not referring to the mixture of seasoning used to enhance food flavors that we call <a href=\"http:\/\/tchakayiti.com\/home\/gou-epis-lakay\/\">epis in Haiti<\/a>. Instead, I am talking about a popular Haitian appetizer.<\/p>\n<h4>Despite their confusing name, our Haitian marinades are a well-seasoned fried batter to which we sometimes add pieces of meat or seafood, such as chicken, sausages or cod.<\/h4>\n<p>Throughout my childhood, these small bites were a must on every first communion reception menu. I remember actually discovering these finger-licking good marinades at my first communion reception and being delighted by their taste.<\/p>\n<h4>My younger brother ate them for the first time that day as well. I was 8 and he was just\u2026. 8 months old!<\/h4>\n<p>I can still recall both his drooling face as he enjoyed his marinades and the astonished look on some of our guests\u2019 faces. Yes, that baby boy ate everything! In addition to eating and swallowing <a href=\"http:\/\/tchakayiti.com\/home\/sugarcane-haiti\/\">chunks of sugarcane without flinching<\/a>, that child also enjoyed his share of well-seasoned and spicy fried Haitian food at a very young age. His favorite, and mine as well, were our chicken marinades.<\/p>\n<p>Up until today, I had no clue how to prepare this local dish. I was never quite satisfied with the recipes we tried. To me, they lacked the taste of the meat juice.<\/p>\n<p><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" data-attachment-id=\"2989\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/tchakayiti.com\/home\/marinades-haiti-beignets-sales\/chicken-marinades-beignets-haiti-marinades-poulet-tchakayiti\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i1.wp.com\/tchakayiti.com\/home\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/05\/chicken-marinades-beignets-haiti-marinades-poulet-tchakayiti.jpg?fit=1200%2C1800&amp;ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"1200,1800\" data-comments-opened=\"1\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;All rights reserved.

One of my cousins came up with the theory that rang a bell in my mind. Since these marinades had macerated longer they had absorbed more of the meat juice and seasoning.<\/p>\n<h4>From that day, I understood why we were not successful at preparing chicken marinades at my house.<\/h4>\n<p>We simply didn\u2019t let the ingredients mingle long enough. I also decided to try and incorporate the meat juice into the batter that we usually prepare with plain water.<\/p>\n<p>And that&#8217;s exactly how I prepared the chicken marinades illustrated above, which recipe I share with you below. They were sinfully delicious. My only regret is not having added more piment bouc. I hope you\u2019ll enjoy prepping, frying and eating them as much as I did!<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>I first published this article on May 20, 2016. At the time, I was convinced chicken marinades were the traditional Haitian marinades. Since then, I discovered that the authentic marinades has no protein at all. They\u2019re simply a well-seasoned fried batter. This new version highlights this nuance.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<div id=\"recipe\"><\/div><div id=\"wprm-recipe-container-2991\" class=\"wprm-recipe-container\" data-recipe-id=\"2991\" data-servings=\"0\"><div class=\"wprm-recipe wprm-recipe-template-chic\"><div class=\"wprm-container-float-right\">\n    <div class=\"wprm-recipe-image wprm-block-image-rounded\"><img decoding=\"async\" style=\"border-width: 0px;border-style: solid;border-color: #666666;border-radius: 3px;\" width=\"167\" height=\"250\" src=\"https:\/\/i1.wp.com\/tchakayiti.com\/home\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/05\/chicken-marinades-beignets-haiti-marinades-poulet-tchakayiti.jpg?fit=167%2C250&amp;ssl=1\" class=\"attachment-250x250 size-250x250\" alt=\"These Haitian chicken marinades are well-seasoned beignets infused with chicken flavors and filled with shredded chicken\/.

Have you lost your mind!! Pa gen komunyon san marinade! (You can\u2019t have a first communion without marinade!) For many Haitian families, mine included, marinades are an intrinsic part of any first communion reception. You simply cannot have one without the other. When I use the word marinades, I am not referring to the mixture of seasoning used to enhance food flavors that we call epis in Haiti. Instead, I am talking about a popular Haitian appetizer. Despite their confusing name, our Haitian marinades are a well-seasoned fried batter to which we sometimes add pieces of meat or seafood, such as chicken, sausages or cod. Throughout my childhood, these small bites were a must on every first communion reception menu. I remember actually discovering these finger-licking good marinades at my first communion reception and being delighted by their taste. My younger brother ate them for the first time that day as well. I was 8 and he was just\u2026. 8 months old! I can still recall both his drooling face as he enjoyed his marinades and the astonished look on some of our guests\u2019 faces. Yes, that baby boy ate everything! In addition to eating and swallowing chunks of sugarcane without flinching, that child also enjoyed his share of well-seasoned and spicy fried Haitian food at a very young age. His favorite, and mine as well, were our chicken marinades. Up until today, I had no clue how to prepare this local dish. I was never quite satisfied with the recipes we tried. To me, they lacked the taste of the meat juice. It wasn\u2019t until a few weeks ago that I decided to finally try and prepare them again after a family fritay night. Without truly understanding why, that night we had all come to agree that the last batch was the tastiest one. One of my cousins came up with the theory that rang a bell in my mind. Since these marinades had macerated longer they had absorbed more of the meat juice and seasoning. From that day, I understood why we were not successful at preparing chicken marinades at my house. We simply didn\u2019t let the ingredients mingle long enough. I also decided to try and incorporate the meat juice into the batter that we usually prepare with plain water. And that&#8217;s exactly how I prepared the chicken marinades illustrated above, which recipe I share with you below. They were sinfully delicious. My only regret is not having added more piment bouc. I hope you\u2019ll enjoy prepping, frying and eating them as much as I did! I first published this article on May 20, 2016. At the time, I was convinced chicken marinades were the traditional Haitian marinades. Since then, I discovered that the authentic marinades has no protein at all. They\u2019re simply a well-seasoned fried batter. This new version highlights this nuance. As per Haitian cooking, these marinades are a labor of love and patience. I recommend preparing the batter early. You should definitely allow a few hours for the flavors to fully develop before frying the marinades. The recipe below is based on the proportions I used. Feel free to adjust the seasoning according to your own taste. But do note that our marinades need to be well seasoned and have some piment bouc kick.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":2988,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"wprm-recipe-roundup-name":"","wprm-recipe-roundup-description":"","spay_email":"","footnotes":"","jetpack_publicize_message":""},"categories":[17,4],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-1531","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-appetizer","category-recipes"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v23.2 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>Haiti&#039;s chicken marinades are not a seasoning | Tchakayiti<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Don&#039;t let the name fool you.
