Great combination of flavors!, March 29, 2004 - 04:39 PM
Reviewer: Nick from New Jersey
I'm partial to jerk spice anyway, but the combination of the fiery Cayenne pepper and the sweet orange/mango salsa was fantastic! I also really like the tang that the cilantro brings.
Pretty easy to prepare and can be used with lots of different kinds of meat or fish, as long as they're not too strong-tasting themselves.
This is destined to become a summertime grilling staple in our backyard. Try it!
