On today's episode of dinner with my family. I wanted to share a quick meal that I made for my family last week. This recipe is super easy to make if you have everything on hand. My son is a huge fan of jerk chicken, and this was actually my first time using chicken breast and he loved this recipe. I've been making jerk salmon alfredo for family gatherings, as well as jerk shrimp alfredo, and it has been a huge hit. Of course, regular jerk chicken is always on rotation in my home. I opted to make this recipe on the grill. However, it can easily be made on the stovetop as well.

5. While the pasta is cooking, Grill or sear your chicken on medium heat for 12-15 minutes, flipping halfway, until completely cooked. Remove from the skillet and slice.
6. Add the alfredo sauce to the drained pasta
7. If you would like to add additional spice to the dish, add a tsp of the jerk seasoning - optional
