Jerk Chicken and Pasta

1 . Stage

Make the chicken: Rub chicken with jerk paste and place into a shallow dish. Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour.

2 . Stage

Preheat an outdoor grill for high heat and lightly oil the grate.

3 . Stage

Cook chicken on the preheated grill until no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear, 8 to 10 minutes per side. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C). Remove to a plate and keep warm.

4 . Stage

While the chicken is cooking, make the pasta: Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Add egg noodles and cook at a boil until tender yet firm to the bite, 6 to 8 minutes. Drain.

5 . Stage

While the noodles are cooking, heat oil in a large saucepan over medium heat. Add garlic and cook until fragrant, about 1 minute. Mix in stock, wine, chopped cilantro, jerk paste, salt, and pepper. Squeeze 1/2 of the lime quarters into the pan and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat to low and stir in cream. Cook and stir until mixture thickens, about 5 minutes; do not let it boil. Pour cooked egg noodles into the pan and toss with cream sauce until coated and warm.

6 . Stage

Divide noodles among four serving plates and top with grilled chicken. Squeeze remaining lime quarters over top and garnish with cilantro sprigs.
