Pasta With Jerk Seasoning Recipes

RASTA PASTA RECIPE

Steps:

• Cook pasta according to the package instructions, take it out at "al dente" as you will cook it more in the next steps.
• I'm using rotisserie chicken in this recipe, but if you are using raw chicken breast then cube it, toss in jerk seasoning and cook until it's golden and cooked through. Then remove from the pot, and set aside to add later.
• Add vegetable oil to a heavy bottomed pot, and saute bell peppers with green onions. Add the minced garlic and cook until it's fragrant.
• Add jerk seasoning to the pot.
• Add heavy cream, chicken and vegetable stock to the pot. Simmer for a few minutes or until the sauce thickens, mix in the parmesan in the sauce and then mix in the pasta.
• Garnish with chopped chives, green onions or parsley and serve.

PASTA WITH JERK SEASONING

Steps:

• Mix all the spices in a jar.Cook the pasta with some salt. Remove from heat; drain and rinse with cold water, 7 mins before the recommended cooking time on the pack.
• Heat the oil in a pan under medium heat.
• Cook the onions until soft and translucent.
• Add the jerk seasoning mix and stir continuously for 30 secs.
• Add the cooked pasta, black beans and sweet corn with a cup of water, and add some salt if required.
• Cover the pan and allow to cook until the water dries out.

JERK SEASONING

Steps:

• In a small bowl, stir together the dried onion, thyme, allspice, ground black pepper, cinnamon, cayenne pepper, and salt. Coat meat lightly with oil, then rub seasoning onto meat.

JERK CHICKEN AND PASTA

Steps:

• Rub each breast half with 1/2 teaspoon jerk paste, and place in a shallow dish. Cover, and refrigerate at least 1 hour.
• Preheat the grill for high heat. Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil, cook the egg noodles 6 to 8 minutes, until al dente, and drain.
• Lightly oil the grill grate. Grill chicken 8 to 10 minutes on each side, until juices run clear.
• Meanwhile, heat the olive oil in a large saucepan over medium heat, and cook the garlic for one minute. Mix in the chicken stock, 1 tablespoon jerk paste, white wine, chopped cilantro, juice of 1 lime, salt, and pepper. Bring to a boil, reduce heat to low, and stir in the heavy cream. Cook and stir until mixture is thickened, about 5 minutes. Do not allow it to boil.
• Pour the cooked egg noodles into the saucepan, and toss with the cream sauce. Divide noodles onto 4 serving plates, and top with grilled chicken. Garnish each serving with a cilantro sprig and the juice of 1/4 lime.
