Additional notes:
The three recipes feature different methods of cooking. Caribbean requires hard sear/ high temp cooking with a grill pan for the jerk chicken and can have small diced fruit/ veg to bounce around from the pineapple salsa. Asian requires deep frying of the chicken & steaming of the bao, and can have all the dry ingredients for the fried chicken batter bounce around. Italian requires boiling of the orzo pasta and can have the orzo pasta & peas bouncing on the speakers.
