- Heat a large sauce pan and add the oil. As the oil is heating, add the garlic.
- Once the garlic is slightly cooked, add the 1-2 tbsp jerk sauce and stir. Cook for another 2-3 minutes.
- Add the coconut milk and cream to sauce pan. Mix well and bring to a slight boil.
- Add the cheese and simmer for about 5-7 minutes, until the sauce has reduced and thicken.
- Add the pasta and frozen peas to the sauce pan and toss to coat.
- Slice your chicken breast and plate it on top of your pasta. Garnish with a thyme sprig if desired. Enjoy.
