View ProfileConsidered a national dish of Haiti, this dish perfectly marries the sweet, nutty flavors of cashews with tender braised chicken and perfectly cooked, crispy fried yucca. A side of pikliz, a Haitian pickled slaw, is the perfect acidic component to balance out the rich dish.

Chef Nahika Hillery comes from a family of avid cooks - growing up she learned how to prepare traditional West Indian food while observing and practicing with several of her family members, especially her mother. Nahika came to love the flavor profiles of her home: full of spices, with balanced seasoning, and influences from a number of cuisines types and styles, including Hatian and Creole. She decided to turn these early experiences with food into something more than cooking with and for friends and family at home.With a combined passion for cooking, cultural pride, and entrepreneurial spirit, Chef Nahika opened the first Haitian food truck in Austin, Texas in 2017. Through Kreyòl Korner - Kreyòl is the native language spoken in Haiti - she has been able to share her beloved culture and food with people visiting from all over the world. From a winning feature on The Food Network to critical acclaim in her new hometown of Austin, Chef Nahika can’t wait to share her story with you through her delicious food.
