Caribbean Jerk Chicken Salads

Caribbean Jerk Chicken Salads

This meal was part of my Blackstone Caribbean Chicken Meal Prep Series, so the chicken and peppers were already cooked for my Caribbean Jerk Chicken Salads and they were ready in minutes!

I did include directions in the recipe if you are just making these salads and not the whole Blackstone Caribbean Jerk Meal Prep Series.

But you can check out the series HERE where I cooked once on the griddle and made FOUR meals with these chicken and peppers.

How to make Caribbean Jerk Chicken Salads


First put a pound of diced chicken in a gallon size plastic bag along with kosher salt, pepper, Caribbean seasoning (to taste), garlic, olive oil, soy sauce, lime juice, and brown sugar.

Massage bag until combined and marinate in fridge for at least an hour, I marinated mine overnight.

Preheat a skillet or your Blackstone griddle to medium heat.
