Ingredients

  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 4 tsp jerk seasoning from recipe below
  • 2 each limes, juiced
  • 4 chicken breasts
  • 4 bread rolls - see my profile for Vickys gluten-free Quick Bread for a recipe*
  • 4 tbsp mayonnaise - see my profile for a free-from recipe*
  • 2 ripe mango, peeled, stoned and sliced
  • 2 tomatoes, sliced
  • 1 shredded lettuce
  • 2 tbsp black peppercorns, toasted
  • 2 tsp allspice berries, toasted
  • 2 tbsp ground cinnamon
  • 1 tbsp salt
  • 1 tbsp dried thyme
  • 1 1/2 tsp cayenne pepper
  • 1/2 tsp ground nutmeg
  • 1 bay leaf

Method

  • Crush the jerk seasoning ingredients together with a pestle and mortar or combine them in a spice grinder.
  • You can multiply the recipe and store the seasoning in a sealed jar
  • Mix the oil, jerk seasoning and the juice from 1 of the limes together
  • Flatten the chicken slightly by placing each breast between sheets of cling film and bash them with a rolling pin.
  • Don't go crazy, just take them to a uniform thickness so they cook evenly
  • Toss the chicken in the marinade and let sit for 10 minutes
  • Heat a griddle or frying pan and cook the chicken for 5 minutes on each side or until cooked through.
  • Toast the buns on the cut sides
  • Spread each bun with a tablespoon of mayo then assemble with the chicken, mango, lettuce and tomato, squeezing the leftover lime juice over before putting the bun tops on
