📖 The Story Behind This Dish

Jamaican jerk chicken is chicken marinated in allspice, chili, and thyme and grilled over charcoal. This creative dish recreates its distinctive sweet, spicy aroma with cinnamon, cloves, chili, and soy sauce from the pantry and cooks it in a frying pan. Ingredients are kept to a minimum so it can be made with things you're likely to have at home.

🌆 Where it's eaten: On a summer evening, in a kitchen with the balcony window open, spice-scented chicken finishes cooking and is served with cold beer.
