Tips:

• Leftovers last up to 6 months in the freezer.
• Leftovers last refrigerated 3 – 4 days.
• Makes for a delicious appetizer or meal served with rice (coconut, plain white or stir fry).
• We prefer Bonne Maman or Smukers Pineapple Preserves usually found in the jam/jelly area of the store.
• We try to limit our salt intake for health reasons, so we opt for the low salt Soy Sauce.
• You may opt to make your own Jerk Seasoning: (1 TBSP) Garlic Powder, Onion Powder, (2 TSP) Black Pepper, Cayenne Pepper, Salt, Sugar (1 TSP) Allspice, Thyme, Paprika, Parsley,(1/2 TSP) Cinnamon, Clove, Nutmeg and (1/4 TSP) Cumin.
• You may garnish with fine cut green onions.
