GRILLED JERK CHICKEN
Spicy Caribbean-style jerk chicken cooked slowly on a warm grill reminds me of my trips to the islands as a sailor. Good main. A little time consuming putting the marinade together but well worth it. Don't worry if you don't have all the ingredients, use what you have. You can double the dry ingredients and save for your next dinner party.

- Combine salt, garlic powder, sugar, allspice, thyme, cayenne, black pepper, sage, nutmeg, and cinnamon in a large bowl. While beating with a wire whisk, slowly add vinegar, orange juice, soy sauce, olive oil, and lime juice. Add onion, green onions, and chile pepper and mix well. Add chicken breasts, cover, and marinate for at least 1 hour, up to overnight.
- Preheat an outdoor grill for medium heat and lightly oil the grate. Remove the chicken from the marinade; reserve.
- Cook chicken on the preheated grill, basting with the reserved marinade frequently, until no longer pink in the center and juices run clear, 6 to 8 minutes per side, depending on the thickness of the chicken. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).

Tips:
- For the best jerk chicken flavor, use a wet or dry rub overnight or for at least 30 minutes before cooking.
- Don't overcook the chicken. Jerk chicken is best when cooked over medium heat until it is cooked through but still juicy.
- To make the most of the Caribbean mango slaw, use fresh, ripe mangoes. If you don't have fresh mangoes, you can use frozen or canned mangoes, but the flavor will not be as good.
- For a spicier jerk chicken, add more scotch bonnet peppers to the rub. You can also add other spices, such as cumin, oregano, or thyme.
- Serve the jerk chicken with your favorite sides, such as rice, beans, or vegetables.
Conclusion:
This recipe for jerk chicken with Caribbean mango slaw is a delicious and easy-to-follow dish that is perfect for a summer cookout or party. The jerk chicken is flavorful and succulent, while the mango slaw is refreshing and light. This recipe is sure to be a hit with your friends and family.
