Caribbean Chicken

Caribbean Chicken has amazing flavor! It is one of our favorite marinades for grilled chicken. It is also so simple to make. 😊

Warm weather is for barbecues and grilling meat and vegetables. It’s for spending time with family and friends and just enjoying the season. Hopefully, your summer is wonderful.

Summer may be our favorite season. Using the grill is our favorite way to cook meat. Happily, my husband is good to stand outside and grill, even in the winter.

Grilling gives meat and vegetable a fantastic flavor! This recipe is quick to put together. I put the marinade ingredients in the Ziploc bag, add the chicken breasts, and make sure I seal the bag tightly. I do not want the marinade leaking in my refrigerator! Then, leave the chicken to marinade all day while we are at work. When we get home, the chicken has soaked up all of the delicious flavors of the marinade and it is ready to grill! We hope you, your friends, and your family enjoy this recipe as much as we do.
