JERK seasoning, a Jamaican specialty, helps create a spicy, one-dish salad that’s perfect for hot summer evenings. This spice mixture usually contains allspice, along with onion, thyme, nutmeg and cinnamon. For this quick dinner, I use prepared jerk seasoning that can be found in the spice section of the market.
You can alter the vegetables in the salad with your favorite ingredients or whatever you have on hand.
Helpful Hints:
• Any brand of jerk seasoning can be used.
• Any type of quick cooking steak can be used.
Countdown:
• Prepare salad ingredients, including corn, red bell pepper, cilantro and lettuce.
• Make steak.
• Add to salad plates.

To buy: 1 package frozen corn kernels, 1 red bell pepper, 1 bunch celery, 1 bunch cilantro, 1 package washed, ready-to-eat salad, 1 bottle jerk seasoning and 3/4 pound skirt steak.
