Anonymous says there's no tamarind paste in the recipe. Right there in black and white is 1/2 c. of tamarind paste. No wonder the recipe didn't turn out for him or her. Also, Tyler's quite right .. it's a good idea to keep your hands away from "sensitive areas" of the body after working with chilies. Afternoon delights aren't recommended after making this dish. LOL!

I made this dish to experiment with a little since I wasn?t familiar with jerk recipes and I wanted something similar for a cookbook I am writing. There were a few ingredients I couldn?t get my hands on like the tamarind, and the ginger, etc. ( just a few of the minor ingredients. I marinated some chicken breast for about 3.5-4 hours. While the chicken was marinating I made up some couscous with sweet baby peas, baby carrots, firm roma tomatoes, mango, and coconut milk. Set aside. Cook the chicken breast using the OUTDOOR grill. I grilled mine with the onions, habanero slices, and all the other tidbits. After the chicken was cooked, I set it aside and hollowed out a few firm mangos. Set aside. When the chicken has cooled enough to handle, shred using two forks. Spoon about 2/3 cup of the couscous into each mango cup, top with about 1/4 cup shredded chicken and a few grilled bits and you?re good to go! Even my kids loved this dish, not to mention that the photos came out beautifully!

the recipe on tv showed that tamarind paste was added, which does not feature in the recipe on the foodnetwork website.

Just tried the recipe with pimento wood
http://www.pimentowood.com/
I found this site that sells Pimento wood in the US - FINALLY!!!!!
I bought wood chips and spice from them and tried them out yesterday. Let me
just say this - I never knew I had so many neighbors. The smoke is delicious.
Now I'm in Jerk heaven - just like being back in Jamaica
