A traditional jerk seasoning is a dry rub that's often used in grilling. It consists of several spices, such as allspice, cloves, chiles, and thyme. This jerk-style chicken is seasoned with a bottled marinade, omitting the hassle of preparing your own jerk-seasoning blend.
Ingredients:
3/4 cup spiced caribbean jerk flavored 30-minute marinade (such as kc masterpiece), divided
5 tablespoons fresh lime juice, divided
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
3 garlic cloves, minced
4 (6-ounce) skinless, boneless chicken breast halves
cooking spray
8 (8-inch) low-fat flour tortillas
1 (15-ounce) can black beans, rinsed and drained
1/2 cup (2 ounces) shredded monterey jack cheese
1/2 cup bottled chunky salsa
Directions:
1. Combine 1/2 cup marinade, 1/4 cup lime juice, pepper, and garlic in a large zip-top freezer bag. Add chicken to bag; seal. Marinate in refrigerator 30 minutes to 1 hour, turning occasionally.
2. Prepare grill.
3. Remove chicken from marinade, discarding marinade. Coat chicken with cooking spray, and place on grill rack; grill 3 to 4 minutes on each side or until done.
4. Shred chicken with 2 forks, and place in a bowl. Combine remaining 1/4 cup marinade and remaining 1 tablespoon lime juice; add to shredded chicken, tossing to coat.
5. Spoon 1/3 cup chicken mixture evenly down center of each tortilla; top each evenly with black beans, cheese, and salsa. Fold in ends, and roll up tortillas. Place on a serving plate, seam sides down.
