I once too worked at Bahama Breeze. I was a corporate trainer. They marinade their chicken breast at least 24 hours in Jerk Seasonings. Their Jerk Pasta consists of slices of Jerk Chicken breasts in a Parmesan cream sauce with a touch of LEMON juice. Add fresh asparagus, mushrooms and parsley to a bed of bowtie pasta and that's it!
