There is this little Italian restaurant here in e-town that I used to frequent every now and then, and they have a dish called the Fusili Al Pacifico that I LOVED to order.

Jerk chicken…tacos. Yes, I know, not the most likely combination! I’m pretty much combining two totally different cuisines with this one.. but seriously people, trust me, it SO works! Jerk chicken is always amazing. When the hubby and I were in Costa Rica a few years ago, we stayed in this little town called Peurto
This meal came about as a spur-of-the-moment, I-need-to-make-something-with-my-leftovers kind of thing. Casseroles are honestly great for that. They are a perfect one-dish meal where you can get creative and throw in anything you like to make one delicious dish! I had some leftover chicken breast, and some quinoa that I needed to cook up.
