Jamaican Jerk Chicken

By Derrick Riches, About.com

This Jamaican Jerk Chicken is marinated unlike other recipes that simply call for a jerk rub.

Prep Time: 20 minutes

Cook Time: 20 minutes

Ingredients:

  • 1 pound skinless chicken breasts
  • 1 jalapeño pepper, seeded and diced
  • 3 tablespoons water
  • 2 tablespoons lime juice
  • 2 tablespoons lemon juice
  • 1 tablespoon Dijon style mustard
  • 4 cloves garlic, mined
  • 2 cubes chicken bouillon
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
  • 1/4 teaspoon dried thyme

Preparation:

Combine all ingredients except the chicken and pour into a shallow baking dish or Zip-Top plastic bag. Add chicken and turn to coat. Cover and place in refrigerator to marinate in jerk seasoning for between 4 hours to overnight. Preheat grill. Remove chicken from jerk marinade and pour marinade into a saucepan. Bring to a boil. Place chicken on grill cooking approximately 7 to 10 minutes per side (or until done), basting periodically with remaining jerk marinade.
