It is #WeekdaySupper here at Noshing With The Nolands. Scurrying around trying to always have a great meal and little time to do it? Well this dinner could not be easier. Store bought Jerk spice is available in many gourmet or specialty stores and one package can go a long way. If you have more time to make up your own jerk spice, I have a recipe for that too!! Add a premade cole slaw or better yet a bag of broccoli slaw and some great gourmet dressing and you have a delicious summer meal in under 30 min.
If you would like to make your own jerk spice the recipe is HERE. The more spice you add to your meat the more intense flavor you will find, so it is easy to have it milder or hotter.
It is easy to have all the flavors of Jamaica at your home this summer!!
