At festivals and community events you will often see food trucks with huge portions of chop suey ready for purchase. This recipe combines chicken, traditional chop suey noodles and lots of vegetables.Ĭhop suey is made in many Costa Rican homes, and it is also a very popular street food. All of the recipes have a Costa Rican flair in that both soy sauce and Salsa Lizano are main ingredients in the sauce. The biggest mark on Costa Rican cuisine that the Chinese immigrants have left are in the form of Chop Suey (both soup and the dry noodle recipe below) and arroz cantones. Today, Chinese immigrants number nearly 45,000 in Costa Rica, and there are many Chinese-Costa Rican people throughout the country who are fully bilingual and run amazing businesses. As time went on, many immigrants arrived in Costa Rica as a stopover while they waited for visas to enter the United States and Canada- but eventually they just stayed in Costa Rica. Historically, they came first from the Guangdong province of China to work on the Panama Railway. Since the mid-1850s, Chinese immigrants have arrived in Costa Rica to work. From chop suey soup to Cantonese rice, some of Costa Rica’s most popular dishes have Chinese influence. Like most countries in the world, Costa Rica has a lovely Chinese-Costa Rican immigrant community that forms the fabric of Costa Rican gastronomy.
