Ingredients
Jerk Chicken:
- 4-6 chicken breasts (about 1 1/2 to 2 lbs)
- 2/3 cup hot sauce (such as Valentina Mexican hot sauce)
- 2 garlic cloves (minced)
- 1/4 cup fresh lime juice (from about 3-4 limes)
- 2 Tablespoons ground allspice
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
- 2 teaspoons thyme
- 1/4 cup brown sugar
- 2-3 teaspoons salt
- 2 teaspoons pepper
- 1 cup scallions, chopped (optional)
- 1/4 cup oil (optional)
Bowl Ingredients:
- white rice
- black beans (can be tossed with scallions, cilantro, and lime juice)
- pineapple
- Mango
- Red, Orange, and Yellow Peppers
- cilantro
- Lime wedges
Instructions
Chicken Marinade:
- In a large Ziploc bag or bowl, mix all marinade ingredients together. If you so desire, you may add oil for extra juiciness. I suggest piercing the chicken with a fork to allow for the marinade to penetrate the chicken.
- Let marinate in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes. 4-8 hours is ideal. When ready to cook, preheat the grill to medium heat. Brush grill with oil to prevent sticking. Place chicken on the grill. Cook for approximately 5 - 6 minutes per side, depending on the thickness of the chicken. The internal temperature of the chicken should reach 165 degrees. Remove chicken from grill and let rest for 5 minutes.
Bowl Instructions:
- Cook rice according to package instructions. Make sure to salt the water when cooking the rice. For extra flavor, toss black beans with scallions, cilantro, and lime juice.
- To assemble bowls, layer rice, beans, peppers, pineapple, mango, cilantro, lime wedges.
