Instructions

Bake the Potatoes:
Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Scrub, dry, and rub potatoes with olive oil + salt. Bake for 45–60 minutes until crispy outside and fluffy inside.
Cook the Chicken:
Season chicken with jerk seasoning, salt, pepper, and olive oil. Grill, pan-sear, or oven-roast until cooked through. Slice or shred.
Sauté the Veggies:
In a pan, cook peppers, onions, and broccoli until tender-crisp. Set aside.
Make the Jerk Alfredo:
In the same pan, melt butter and sauté garlic until fragrant. Add heavy cream and jerk seasoning. Simmer for 2–3 minutes. Stir in parmesan until smooth. Adjust seasoning to taste.

Load It Up:
Cut open baked potato, fluff the inside. Pile on jerk chicken, sautéed veggies, and smother with jerk Alfredo sauce. Optional: Garnish with parsley or a squeeze of lime.

Notes

For added flavor, marinate the chicken in jerk seasoning for a few hours before cooking.
Feel free to customize the veggies based on your preference or seasonal availability.

For a spicier kick, increase the amount of jerk seasoning in the sauce.
