Followed exactly except added green pepper strips and sprinkled with a little more jerk seasoning when putting in oven. Good but we thought it needed more zip. Next time I'll increase rum and seasoning by 50% and maybe add a little red pepper or hour sauce.

Good but needs more kick. I added some green pepper strips. Also sprinkled with about a teaspoon more jerk seasoning when putting oven. Think next time I'll increase rum and jerk seasoning by 50% and maybe add a few dashes of hot sauce to the marinade.

Don't want to use alcohol? No problem. Just substitute 1 teaspoon of rum extract mixed with 5 teaspoons of water and you're good to go!
