Caribbean-Style Chicken


  • 1/2 tsp allspice
  • 1/4 tsp dried thyme
  • 1/4 tsp paprika
  • 1/8 tsp hot pepper sauce
  • 1 tsp olive oil
  • 1 tsp lime juice
  • 2 boneless skinless chicken breast halves
1.  In a small bowl, combine all ingredients except chicken; mix well. Rub mixture on chicken breast halves. Let stand at room temperature for 15 minutes to marinate.
2.  Spray broiler pan with nonstick cooking spray, place chicken on spray-coated pan. Broil 4 to 6 inches from heat for 8 to 10 minutes or until chicken is fork tender and juices run clear, turning once.

Robyn's notes: very simple, and it's good to have a couple recipes that require a very short marinade, for when you've forgotten to prepare anything or when plans change last minute. The original recipe source when this was a larger yield called it just "Caribbean Chicken", but even I know that people in that region wouldn't claim this recipe resembles their dishes, so I've added the modifier. I added the green onions for visual balance. Definitely needs the hot sauce.

*** 3 Stars: Good. At least one of us liked this enough for me to make it again, but not often
