10 Famous Black Foodies Share Their Signature Recipes

Out of all the recipes in Ayesha Curry's debut cookbook, The Seasoned Life, her Brown Sugar Roasted Chicken is one of her absolute favorites. "This is a recipe I would ALWAYS ask my mom to make for me as a child. It's hearty, delicious, and is easy to make. I make double when I make this chicken dish as it tastes even more flavorful the second day (and the third)," Ayesha writes in the recipe's intro. The chicken is equal parts crispy and juicy because it's seared in a skillet before being baked in the oven with a sweet glaze made of soy sauce and brown sugar.
