Jerk-Style Chicken Strips
Jerk-Style Chicken Strips bring a punchy balance of heat and sweetness, with habanero and allspice layered over brown sugar, soy, and thyme. The marinade soaks into tender chicken for bold, aromatic bites with a slight char. Perfect for a casual weeknight dinner, game-day platters, or as a vibrant addition to rice bowls and salads.
