I needed a cold day meal with spicing that did not resemble holiday fare and could be assembled with ingredients in the house. Of course, we didn't have everything in the ingredients list so I made the following changes-
- the 2 yams were replaced with 3 sweet potatoes
- we didn't have Scotch bonnet peppers so I opened a can of jalapeno peppers instead
- after scraping the marinade off the chops (I used shoulder chops) and searing the chops, I added the marinade to the cast iron skillet, covered the pan and put it into a 300' oven for about 45 minutes
The combination of warm spices, ginger and hot peppers was perfect.
