Jerk Chicken is a staple of Jamaican cuisine. While our Jerk Seasoning is less spicy than a traditional Jamaican Jerk, it brings beautiful depth and round flavor to any dish you can think up! We added some lime juice to the mix to make a bit of a wet marinade for this grilled chicken, and it was awesome!
