  • Step 1

    Preheat the oven to 200 degrees. Mix the dried chilli flakes (use according to taste), tomato paste, Worcestershire sauce, honey, and 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a bowl to create the jerk marinade. Adjust the chilli amount based on your preference for spiciness.

  • Step 2

    Toss the chopped sweet potato, red capsicum, and red onion with 1 tablespoon of olive oil, salt, and pepper. Spread them out on one half of a large baking tray.

  • Step 3

    Add the chopped chicken breast to the marinade, making sure each piece is evenly coated. Arrange the chicken on the other half of the baking tray.

  • Step 4

    Place the baking tray in the preheated oven and roast for 20-25 minutes, or until the vegetables are tender and the chicken is fully cooked with a slight char on the edges.

  • Step 5

    Once roasted, lightly toss the vegetables with the sliced spring onion in a bowl to combine.

  • Step 6

    Serve the jerk chicken hot alongside the roasted Jamaican sweet potato salad. Enjoy!

Favourite dish so far! Really tasty, and a good portion. I usually feel I have to add something, for it to be a filling dish.
