Had 2 winners tonight - Jamaican Jerk Chicken and Corn Pudding.... mmmmm!
- Thread starter cheezz
- Start date
REC: Jamaican Jerk Chicken (see my note at end of recipe)
Jamaican Jerk Chicken
2 green onions, chopped
1 tbl. soy sauce
1 tbl. Worcestershire
1 tbl. salad oil
1 tsp. minced peeled gingerroot
1/4 to 1 tsp. ground red pepper
1 tsp. chopped fresh thyme leaves
1 tsp. sugar
1/2 tsp. ground allspice
1/2 tsp. salt
2 whole medium-size chicken breasts, skinned, boned and each cut in half
About 2 hours before serving:
In blender at medium speed, blend all but chicken. Pour marinade into a Ziploc or bowl, add chicken, and marinade, turning pieces to coat well. Cover and refrigerate at least 1 hour.
Preheat broiler. Light brush rack in broiling pan with oil. Place chicken on rack in pan. Broil about 7 to 9” from heat source (or in oven set at 450 deg.), and broil 15 to 20 min. until fork-tender, turning once.
For a delicious side dish, cook rice in chicken broth then toss cooked rice with toasted, slivered almonds and diced red bell pepper
Makes 4 servings.
Jane's note: I wanted to make something new with pork tenderloin so that’s what I used. I put the pork in a cold oven, turn it to 475 deg. For 20 min., then down to 350 deg. For 20 more minutes. Then turn the oven to broil for 5 min. Let set for 10 minutes before slicing.

REC: Corn Pudding (again... my notes at end of recipe)
Corn Pudding
One 15.25 oz. can whole kernel corn, drained
One 14.25 oz. can cream-style corn
1 cup milk
2 beaten eggs
1/4 cup margarine or butter, melted
1/4 tsp. pepper
1/2 cup cornmeal
(it needed about 1/2 tsp. salt, too)
In a large mixing bowl, combine whole corn, cream corn, milk, eggs, melted margarine or butter, pepper (and salt). Add cornmeal and stir until moistened.
Pour mixture into a 2-quart casserole. Bake in 350 deg. Oven for 50-55 min., or until lightly browned and set in the center (took an hour in my oven).
Makes 8 side-dish servings.
Jane’s notes: This is a really wonderful side dish. I wasn’t sure it was quite set, but it sets up more as it cools. It was good at room temp, too. Cut this out long time ago and just got around to trying it – sorry, don’t remember which magazine it came from.

This would also be, in my experience, delicious on the grill. Not practical for some...
...in February, but nonetheless delicious.
Thanks Jane!

Since cheezz used boneless, skinless chicken, it could be cooked on an
indoor grill. I've grilled marinated chicken, blackened boneless pork chops, and most recently, marinated chicken breasts coated in a yogurt sauce for Chicken Tikka Masala - all seared with lovely grill marks and a juicy interior. I have a Breville Ikon indoor grill and it does a fantastic job in lieu of a regular charcoal or gas grill. I'm sure a ribbed George Forman grill would do a good job as well.

I just picked up 4 pork tenderloins for the grill tomorrow. We are blessed...
...with good weather right now.
Don't ask me in August! (But I still grill, because you don't have to shovel sunshine.)

"Shovel sunshine" - HA! Geez, can't wait until I melt in the Florida sunshine in the summer....ugh!
Now that's when my indoor grill will come in handy!! Or, I could just wrap cold water balloons around my head?? I'm bringing my huge and never-used Weber charcoal kettle grill! I'm sure I'll attract lizards, rabbits, and prehistoric fowl (along with my Dad's prehistoric neighbors - LOL).

The weber kettle (big black apple) is a great grill! We do everything from...
...whole turkeys to hot smoked salmon on ours.
Best $79 I ever spent.

I bought DH the Weber Performer awhile back....love it, too -
Just like the regular Webber only has the propane cylindar that lights it and a built in tub for storning charcoal.
I use it all winter, also - but our patio is covered so if it's icy or snowy at least you can still grill but I don't stay out long at a time! ha

Thanks cheezz, I was looking for a jerk chicken recipe that didn't have a lot of volcano inspired
peppers but still had good flavor. Saw a recipe for jerk chicken used on a pizza with pineapple chunks and red bell peppers and red onions, looked wonderful but first how to obtain 'leftover' jerk chicken!! I've printed this for later in the week!
