Ingredients

The following ingredients have 8 Servings
  • 2 teaspoons jerk seasoning
  • 1 lime (juiced)
  • 1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
  • 1 pound boneless and skinless chicken breasts (or thighs, chopped into 1 inch cubes)
  • 1 red onion (chopped into 1 inch pieces)
  • 1 cup grape tomatoes (or cherry tomatoes)
  • 1 cup pineapple (fresh, cut into cubes (optional))
  • 1 plantain (very ripe (blackened peel), peel on, cut into slices (if using grill, remove peel when eating but not before grilling))
  • 1/2 teaspoon kosher or sea salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper

Instruction

  • Toss chicken, onions, and tomatoes in the marinade. Marinate in the refrigerator, covered, for at least 20 minutes and up to one day. If using bamboo skewers, soak in warm water for 30 minutes before using to avoid splintering.
  • Place chicken, onion, tomatoes, pineapple (if using), and plantains on a skewer. Leave space at both top and bottom of the skewer. Sprinkle each skewer all around with salt and pepper.
