Caribbean Jerk is a vibrant and flavorful cooking style that hails from Jamaica, known for its aromatic blend of spices. The signature marinade includes ingredients like allspice, thyme, scallions, garlic, and heat from Scotch bonnet peppers. Typically used on chicken or pork, it delivers a perfect balance of smoky, sweet, and spicy notes. While the seasoning is often rich in flavor, Jerk dishes can be a healthy choice when grilled or baked, offering protein and fiber without excessive fat. So, indulge in this bold taste of the Caribbean, and savor the essence of island life!
