Jerk Chicken for a dinner party — went down extremely well

I made Jerk Chicken for eight guests who had varying familiarity with the cuisine. Every single person asked for the recipe. The fiery and aromatic profile was the main talking point — no one had quite experienced scotch bonnet used that way before.

ackee is legally restricted for export when unripe due to toxicity — an unusual national dish ingredient. I explained the a family Sunday dinner context as I served it which helped people appreciate it fully. sorrel drink was what I offered alongside and it worked perfectly. Excellent dinner party dish — impressive without being inaccessible.
