Rasta Pasta " Jerk Chicken Ravioli with Pineapple - Mango Chutney
This was my first time to make Ravioli and used my Goodwill find ravioli maker. Not bad for the first time . I made the dough and rolled by hand, so I guess I am open to @Steve H to help me find a pasta roller , God here I go.
Well had a half chicken coated with my new to me Jerk coating.
3 tablespoon Cool Runnings Jerk seasoning, 2 Tea soya sauce, 2 tea canala oil, 1 tea lemon juice, mix and coat your bird. Place in a bag in the fridge for about 20 hours.
This was a winner for a quick Jerk Sauce .

Put this onto a heated BBQ with my box smoker rolling with Cherry and Hickory chips, Outside burners on high and the middle 2 low. Only took about 1 1/2 hours came to IT 169 in the breast.

Smoke rolling very nice, it has been very warm here for the last week , but this weekend heavy rain. But at least I dont have to shovel it .

I will be using this Jerk mix again, and the Ladies loved it also, I sliced a few pieces off for them to try. The rest is for the Ravioli.
Very juicy and full of the flavour I wanted.

Now onto the new to me part, making the Ravioli dough . Mixed and kneeded ( no pictures as my hands were busy and dirty ) Rolled and wrapped for about 40 minutes.

Cut and rolled and floured . Onto the maker tray , fill the holes egg the seams, and cover. Roll the top layer onto the bottom . Releace and lightly flour . I put in the boiling water after about 30 minutes. The box says air dry for about 1 hour on each side, that seemed wrong to me , so I did early. ( maybe that was the problem )

While these are resting made up a blend of Pineapple tidbits and juice and Mango Chutney about 1 to 3 for the mix. 1 part pineapple and 3 parts Mango. This was / is a very good mix. AND I am shocked the ladies liked it very much. There is some heat and this is called mild, go figure , but a very tasty mix.
HA HA just realized it have the French side of the bottle showing, will post the normal side later , lol.
I'm such an ass as Mona would say.

Water stopped boiling when the pasta went in , good time for a picture.
So they were boiling for about 10 minutes but this is where I realized that the dough is just a touch to thick, As they all floated right away. So I had to time them and I sampled one.
This is where Steve and you others will tell me the best stand alone pasta maker, lol.
They are tender and cooked , just a little to thick, BUT again I was shocked that the Ladies loved them and ate them all up , even cold after supper. WOW , really can not figure them out , Hot and Smoked and they enjoyed them. Women !!
So here they are all plated up and ready to serve

My plate , you can taste all the Jerk flavour and the sauce ( Chutney ) was a nice sweet combo to to enrich the Jerk \Chicken in the pasta. This will happen again , once I get me a roller for thinner pasta.

Thanks for making it to the end. This was not supper it was appetizer snack, Just wanted to make this as a trial, and not supper incase it did not work. That is why there is no dessert , lol.
So now it is on the menu for a full meal when I get a roller
