This has become one of my all-time favorite recipes to make - and it is easily one of my husband's favorite meals. Based on other suggestions, I use 4 cans of Campbell's beef broth in place of the water and I brown a pound and a half of ground beef and add that. As others suggested, I add a can of diced tomatoes, too. I have also started adding some matchstick carrots for some color. This is a hearty, flavorful dish that is easy to make and gets better each day after you make it ...

My husband loves chicken ... I can tolerate it. This recipe was absolutely terrific. It made a load of marinade, too. I was able to marinate a pound and a half of chicken breasts and a pound of chicken tenders. We had a hot dinner right off grill and then used the leftovers for jerk chicken salads. It was a huge hit - a recipe that I would definitely use when we have friends over. Great flavor. I followed the recipe pretty closely and as someone else mentioned - it didn't look all that pretty, but the chicken was fabulous.

I was searching for a Caribbean marinade to grill some shrimp. I read the ingredients of this recipe without reading the instructions ... which call for you to cook the shrimp and THEN coat with the sauce. Having made the sauce - and having added raw shrimp, I went ahead with my grill plans. I grilled the shrimp four minutes per side and served the shrimp on Caribbean style salads - it was excellent! My husband couldn't stop eating them. The fresh ginger gave them a nice little zing, too. I didn't use it as it was intended - but a great recipe that we will use as a grill marinade again for sure. (I would give it 5 stars, but I'm still a little partial to the marinated grilled shrimp recipe that is on this site).
