Nice family dinner

I was hoping for a deconstructed Jamaican recipe

I’m disappointed I was hoping to see a Jamaican recipe. It’s cheap so it has that going for it.you should’ve made the chicken with a lemon wine sauce and capers. I didn’t see any garnish. I’m going to make meatballs and sausages for my husband and I’ll have fish or oxtail braised in a red wine sauce and pasta or I’ll do stew peas and rice. For dessert brownies I may. Steal your appetizer idea except garlic bread.

Why are you cooking with butter and wasting the paper towel and when did Jamaicans start using paper towels? It’s a waste of money
