Jamaican Jerk Marinade

Apple Cake

This delectable Apple Cake has a slightly crunchy crust and a soft moist center that is loaded with chunks of sweet apple and pecans. It is perfectly spiced with cinnamon, ground cloves and nutmeg. It is lightly drizzled with an easy four ingredient caramel sauce. I make this cake several times each fall for bake sales, potlucks and family and friend get-togethers.

Easy Ratatouille

This easy ratatouille recipe is a classic summer French stew filled with vibrant, colourful and nutritious vegetables: tomatoes, zucchini and eggplant. It is a low-carb, gluten-free and vegan dish that can be made in one pan and served atop greens or grains, as a side to a main entrée, or all on its own.

My husband loves Jerk Chicken and we have a gourmet store nearby that sells really great Jerk Chicken but it’s expensive. A bit too expensive to eat it as often as my family would like. I’ve been looking for a while now for a recipe that I could make that would be as good as the Jerk Chicken from the local gourmet store and I think I’ve finally found it. This was really delicious and my family loved it. I pretty much followed the recipe as written. The only change I made was I added a couple of sliced shallots because most of the jerk recipes I’ve looked at had green onions added and I wanted that flavor in the marinade. I marinated boneless pork steaks for 24 hours and then cooked them on the grill. We like to serve the jerk in wraps with lettuce and tomatoes. It was delicious and my family thought that this recipe was as good as the local gourmet store’s jerk chicken. Mission accomplished! The only thing I might do differently is next time I make it I will cut back on the salt by a teaspoon. Thanks for the great recipe!
