Instructions
- Put the chicken pieces in a gallon ziplock bag or other container and pour all but 1/4 cup of the jerk sauce over the chicken. Massage or stir the chicken to thoroughly coat the pieces. Chill in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours, preferably overnight. If using wooden skewers soak them for at least 30 minutes or overnight.
- Heat the grill to medium high heat.Remove the chicken from the marinade, letting the excess drip off. Discard the remaining marinade. Thread the chicken onto 8 skewers, alternating between the red bell peppers and pineapple. Grill for about 5-7 minutes on each side or until the chicken is done, using the reserved jerk marinade for basting.Serve immediately. This Mango Salsa makes a great accompaniment.See blog post for serving suggestions.
