    The Hamilton

    Caribbean jerk chicken satay with mango chutney

    A nod to Alexander's West Indies origins

    The Story

    Alexander Hamilton was born on the island of Nevis in the British West Indies — an orphan who would become the architect of America's financial system. Before arriving in New York as a teenager, Hamilton grew up surrounded by the bold, spice-forward flavors of the Caribbean: jerk seasoning, tropical fruits, and open-fire cooking. This chicken satay with mango chutney honors his island roots and the extraordinary journey from the Caribbean to the Constitutional Convention.
