Ingredients
-
2 (5 ounce) skinless, boneless chicken breasts
-
2 tablespoons jerk paste
-
2 tablespoons jerk seasoning, divided
-
¼ cup chicken broth, or more as needed
-
4 (6 inch) flour tortillas
Directions
-
Put chicken breasts in a zip-top bag and add jerk paste and 1 tablespoon jerk dry seasoning. Marinate in the refrigerator for 1 hour. You can prepare charcoal grill while the chicken marinates.
-
While chicken marinates, preheat a charcoal grill to high heat.
-
Place chicken on the, "cool," side of the grill and cover. Cook, checking every 5 to 7 minutes, until chicken is no longer pink in the centers. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the centers should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).
-
Let cool enough to handle, 5 to 10 minutes; cut into bite-sized pieces.
-
Pour chicken broth into a saucepan. Add diced chicken and remaining jerk dry seasoning. Mix well, reduce heat, cover, and let simmer for 10 to 15 minutes. Add a little more broth at a time if needed.
-
Remove from heat and transfer chicken to tortillas with any toppings you prefer before serving.
