The Jerk Chicken Queen of the Bronx – Street Food Icons

Fauzia Abdur-Rahman has been serving Jamaican food in the South Bronx from her cart Fauzia’s Heavenly Delights, right outside the courthouse, for the last 25 years. The menu changes every day, but there are always two meat options, a fish option and three vegetarian options.

With the help of her daughter and husband, Fauzia makes her famous jerk chicken three times a week, and finishes it with her homemade jerk sauce that she makes with pimiento and scotch bonnet peppers, plus a host of other ingredients.

  1. Yummy. That chicken looks the bomb. Send us some good jerk chicken to Ireland.. 🇮🇪🇮🇪🇮🇪 We don't have any Jamaican food at all.. Ate jerk in London but her menu looks delicious. Really wish her all best for the future amazing to see such an honest hardworking family.

  2. This looks amazing, wish I could try some, I know i would like it but my body is a pussy, I would eat it and it would be like 'nah mate that's going straight out, lets through in a bit of pain too'. Keep on keeping on Bronx queen.
