By combining the signature heat of Scotch bonnet chillies with earthy allspice, cinnamon, and a hint of dark rum, this high-protein dish offers a complex depth of flavour that far surpasses shop-bought marinades. Using skinless chicken breasts ensures the meal remains lean while absorbing the vibrant spices, resulting in a succulent finish that works beautifully for a midweek dinner or a nutritious meal prep option.

Designed for those seeking a healthy yet satisfying main course, this recipe is incredibly straightforward to prepare. The quick marinating time makes it an ideal choice for busy evenings when you want a nutritious, homemade meal without hours of prep. Serve these spiced chicken breasts alongside traditional rice and peas, a crisp seasonal salad, or a cooling lime-dressed slaw to balance the gentle heat. It is a versatile favourite that provides a delicious boost of lean protein to your weekly menu.

How to make Jerk Chicken

Precalienta el horno a 191°C.

Combine the allspice, cinnamon, nutmeg, onion, spring onions, chilli, rum, salt, and pepper in a food processor. Process until the mixture forms a thick salsa-like mixture.

Rub the mixture on each chicken breast and place the chicken in a zipper-lock plastic bag. Squeeze out the air and seal the bag. Refrigerate for 10 minutes.

Spray the rack of a roasting pan with non-stick spray and place in the pan.

Arrange the chicken on the rack, and bake for 12 minutes. Flip the chicken and cook another 15 minutes until cooked through. Serve warm.
