Bring a taste of the Caribbean to your backyard with this vibrant Grilled Chicken with Jerk Seasoning! This recipe offers an approachable version of traditional jerk chicken, using jalapeños instead of harder-to-find Scotch bonnets while still delivering that signature aromatic blend of allspice, cinnamon, and green onions. The overnight marinade infuses the chicken with deep, complex flavors that bloom beautifully on the grill. Perfect for summer gatherings or any time you crave bold, exotic flavors with minimal effort. - Claude

💬 Uncle Dave says...
Traditionally, jerk is made with Scotch bonnet peppers (also known as habanero chilies). Since they are not widely available outside the Caribbean, this recipe uses jalapeños instead. If you do have habaneros on hand, remember that they're 60 times hotter than jalapeños.
