Embrace Caribbean Flavors with Chef Irie
We welcomed back Chef Irie to the 2024 Palm Beach Home Show in leading an incredible Live Culinary Experience with his unmatched Caribbean-style cooking session. Chef Irie, a master of island flavors, guided us through an authentic and mouthwatering Jamaican Jerk Chicken recipe, paired with a vibrant Mango Cabbage Slaw.
Discover the Secrets to Perfect Jerk Chicken
Chef Irie took us deep into the heart of Jamaican cuisine where he emphasized the importance of fresh ingredients and the perfect balance of flavors. One of the highlights was the revelation of the SECRET ingredient that makes Jerk Chicken truly authentic. Any guesses? You’ll have to watch the YouTube video below to find out!
Chef Irie shared his expertise on proper grilling methods and precise seasoning, essential for achieving the perfect Jerk Chicken. As a true Caribbean, he expressed his personal love for ‘rub,’ which plays a central role in the dish’s flavor profile.
