I had leftover corn that I had cut off of the cobs I had steamed a few days earlier. I simply warmed that part up instead of grilling corn. I also decided to try tilapia instead of shrimp. I placed the tilapia in a greased baking dish, drizzled some melted butter over top, then topped the fish with the Caribbean jerk seasoning. Covered, baked the fish at 425 for 12 minutes, uncovered and baked for an additional 3 minutes. I didn't want to start up the grill for just the asparagus so I steamed those as well. I actually really liked this with the fish, but I can see how it would be delicious with the shrimp too. Because this is an easy recipe and it's light and tasty, we'll most likely be making this again!","reviewRating":{"@context":"http:\/\/schema.org\/","@type":"Rating","ratingValue":4,"worstRating":1,"bestRating":5}},{"@context":"http:\/\/schema.org\/","@type":"Review","datePublished":"2011-09-12","author":{"@context":"http:\/\/schema.org\/","@type":"Person","name":"RedPin"},"reviewBody":"I love this dish!

Even tho I modified it. I used Creole seasoning instead of the Jerk seasoning.. because thats what I had at home.I also pan roasted the corn and asparagus and pan roasted the shrimp, as it was too hot outside to grill. I made a simpler dressing of olive oil, lemon juice, salt and pepper (I did make the other and found it too diluted with the water and vinegar... (no need to have both vinegar and lime\/lemon juice in the same recipe IMHO). All in all, it was met by rave reviews and i will most definitely make this again.

My husband and I thought this was a pretty good, light recipe for those very hot summer days. I had leftover corn that I had cut off of the cobs I had steamed a few days earlier. I simply warmed that part up instead of grilling corn. I also decided to try tilapia instead of shrimp. I placed the tilapia in a greased baking dish, drizzled some melted butter over top, then topped the fish with the Caribbean jerk seasoning. Covered, baked the fish at 425 for 12 minutes, uncovered and baked for an additional 3 minutes. I didn't want to start up the grill for just the asparagus so I steamed those as well. I actually really liked this with the fish, but I can see how it would be delicious with the shrimp too. Because this is an easy recipe and it's light and tasty, we'll most likely be making this again!<\/p>","CommentId":4,"DateRated":"05\/07\/2017 19:26","GUID":"e9d92891ca1f41d29f5e39143d09edc8","MemberId":6612040,"Rating":4,"ScreenName":"PrplMonky5","SubmittedDate":"05\/07\/2017 19:26"},{"Comment":"

I would remake this recipe with a jerk recipe of my own that doesn't require a bought Caribbean jerk seasoning. Also, I blanched the asparagus in the water that I used to cook the orzo. I used frozen corn. I barbequed the shrimp and served it with the orzo vegetable mix.

I love this dish! I double it every time deliberately to have leftovers. I freeze them in single-size portions and it reheats well. My spin on the recipe:<\/p>
Double everything, but triple the sauce. I only add double amount of vinegar, though, to cut down on the sharpness it adds.<\/p>
I add one purple onion, thinly sliced, and saute' it lightly with the red onion before mixing with the rest.<\/p>
Delicious recipe!<\/p>","CommentId":7,"DateRated":"09\/12\/2011 13:33","GUID":"573d293d62204d0eb227bc55a0c9ef9b","MemberId":5274328,"Rating":5,"ScreenName":"hannahjw88","SubmittedDate":"09\/12\/2011 13:33"},{"Comment":"

This salad was fantastic. Even tho I modified it. I used Creole seasoning instead of the Jerk seasoning.. because thats what I had at home.I also pan roasted the corn and asparagus and pan roasted the shrimp, as it was too hot outside to grill. I made a simpler dressing of olive oil, lemon juice, salt and pepper (I did make the other and found it too diluted with the water and vinegar... (no need to have both vinegar and lime\/lemon juice in the same recipe IMHO). All in all, it was met by rave reviews and i will most definitely make this again. I also used tomato instead of red pepper because we don't like em.<\/p>","CommentId":10,"DateRated":"08\/05\/2011 09:11","GUID":"4fd64d05ba9a43d6b1c4d9f8d8141ac4","MemberId":1865209,"Rating":5,"ScreenName":"conniepage","SubmittedDate":"08\/05\/2011 09:11"},{"Comment":"","CommentId":11,"DateRated":"08\/04\/2011 11:09","GUID":"9d7a90626dfe41e9a0b56db7d447ffed","MemberId":1181343,"Rating":0,"ScreenName":"Dora1941","SubmittedDate":"08\/04\/2011 11:09"},{"Comment":"

This recipe tased great! It was too cold to grill outside, so I did everything inside in a skillet. It still turned out. Personally, we did need a little more dressing, so I did make a double portion of that (I know, not as healthy). No corn on the cob here now, so I used frozen corn.<\/p>
I will definitely make this again!<\/p>

A few modifications: roasted frozen corn (1 cup) and fresh asparagus (25 spears cut into 1-inch pieces) in oven at 400 degrees for 15 minutes instead of grille. 1 cup orzo, 1 pound shrimp, 2 peppers. Used 1 tsp jerk seasoning as it was a bit too spicy the first time. Broiled shrimp in toaster oven instead of grille. Also, we doubled the dressing since increased other ingredients - needed to increase qty. This served about 4 adults, and prep\/cook time about 25-30 minutes total using oven instead of grille.<\/p>","CommentId":18,"DateRated":"01\/20\/2011 19:04","GUID":"473b6e7547254f35a8d7b5c8bfd8f488","MemberId":1843377,"Rating":5,"ScreenName":"ShellyJefferson","SubmittedDate":"01\/20\/2011 19:04"},{"Comment":"

We were very disappointed in this dish. The dressing just seemed to be all wrong. It seemed too tangy to us.
