Method
- In a large bowl, combine chicken pieces with jerk seasoning, olive oil, soy sauce, brown sugar, lime juice, minced garlic, and minced pepper. Mix thoroughly and marinate for at least 30 minutes.
- For the mango slaw, combine sliced purple cabbage, diced mango, julienned bell pepper, and chopped cilantro in a large bowl. Whisk lime juice, honey, and salt, then toss with slaw mixture.
- To make honey lime cream, whisk together Greek yogurt, mayonnaise, honey, lime juice, lime zest, salt, and chopped cilantro until smooth and creamy.
- Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Remove chicken from marinade and cook in batches for 4-5 minutes per side until deeply caramelized and cooked through.
- Allow chicken to rest for 5 minutes, then slice or keep in chunks as desired.
- To assemble bowls, divide mango slaw among serving bowls, top with warm jerk chicken, and finish with generous dollops of honey lime cream.
- Garnish with additional fresh cilantro and lime wedges if desired.
- Serve immediately while chicken is warm, or prepare components separately for meal prep and assemble when ready to eat.
Notes
Marinate chicken for up to 4 hours for maximum flavor. Components can be prepared separately and stored for up to 3 days for easy meal prep. Adjust spice level by varying the amount of scotch bonnet or jalapeño pepper.
