Instructions

  • 1.

    Marinate the chicken breasts with jerk seasoning for at least 30 minutes (or overnight for best flavor).

  • 2.

    In a pot, combine brown rice and water or chicken broth. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 30 minutes until rice is tender.

  • 3.

    While the rice is cooking, grill or bake the marinated chicken for about 6-7 minutes on each side, or until fully cooked (internal temperature of 165°F).

  • 4.

    In a large bowl, combine diced mango, red bell pepper, cucumber, red onion, and mixed greens. Drizzle with lime juice and season with salt and pepper.

  • 5.

    Once the chicken is cooked, slice it and serve over a bed of brown rice with the mango salad on the side.
