Fall in love with JERK
A great Jerk Chicken Recipe
Ric Orlando
IYKYK.
I am known for making some of the best Jerk Chicken in the Hudson Valley for over a quarter century. I do make really good Jerk, award winning Jerk, actually. Hot, salty, a little sweet, aromatic and spicy, no compromise Jerk as it should be. I have turned on thousands of ”white people” who may have never experienced it to Jerk cookery. And now I sell thousands of jars of my JERK seasoning mix annually to flavor-seeking home cooks around the US.
On my first appearance on Food network’s Chopped, I had the perfect basket to show off my Jerk skills. Given quails, raisinettes, kale and a coconut, I whipped up “Rum Raisin Jerk Quail”, using raisinettes instead of the molasses in my jerk recipe. Of course I won handily and Chopped judge Mark Murphy declared that my Jerk Quail was the best dish he had had on Chopped to date.
Enjoy the recipe.
