Succulent Citrus-infused Grilled Jerk Chicken Recipe

Step 1

Mix together a flavorful blend of 3 tablespoons of zesty jerk seasoning, a splash of oil, a squeeze of fresh lemon juice, a drizzle of lime juice, and a hint of orange juice in a convenient resealable plastic bag.

Step 2

Prepare the chicken on a spacious work area. Carefully slice through the middle horizontally, creating a pocket without cutting all the way through. Gently unfold the two halves like a beautiful open book.

Step 3

Sprinkle the butterflied chicken with an additional tablespoon of jerk seasoning and immerse it in the marinade. Seal the bag and let the chicken soak up the flavors in the refrigerator for approximately 1 hour. Take it out of the fridge and let it sit at room temperature for about 10 minutes before grilling.

Step 4

Preheat a gas grill to a sizzling 500 degrees F (260 degrees C) and lightly grease the grates. Place the marinated chicken on the grill and cook until it is no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear, typically 4 to 5 minutes per side. Serve the succulent chicken hot and enjoy the burst of flavors!
