How To Make bahamian jerk chicken

1Sauce: Add crushed pineapple, garlic, vinegar, sugar, soy sauce, and ⅔ cup water to a medium sauce pan and bring to a boil. In a small bowl whisk together corn starch and cold water until dissolved. Add to boiling sauce and stir. Reduce heat to low and allow to simmer while you prepare the chicken.

2Chicken: Sprinkle Jamaican jerk seasoning over both sides of each chicken breast and use your fingers to rub the seasoning into the chicken. Drizzle a large pan or skillet with oil over medium heat. Add chicken breasts and cook 3-4 minutes on each side until cooked through. Serve with fresh salad or over rice with the pineapple sauce and chopped cilantro.
