Jamaican Jerk Chicken with Pineapple Mango Salsa

Features:
    Cuisine:

    This was fabulous! It looks pretty involved, but it's really very simple to prepare. I love that the chicken is sitting in the marinade and just ready to throw on the grill at dinner time. All I had to do was to make the salsa. I ended up chopping the fruits by hand, because we like a chunky salsa. The flavors on the chicken and the complementing salsa are excellent. Next time, I will cut the marinade ingredients in half for 4 chicken breasts. Made for the Soup-A-Stars during ZWT9

    Taxi Stand Jerk Chicken With Pineapple Mango Salsa,This recipe for jerk sauce is courtesy of Ray’s Hideaway Restaurant and Taxi Stand, Montego Bay, Jamaica. It’s fiery, but not incendiary, full of flavor, and worth the effort to make it. I got the recipe from The Early Show on CBS. The chicken needs to marinate 4-8 hours so start early. :D,This was fabulous! It looks pretty involved, but it’s really very simple to prepare.
