- For chicken: Rub chicken with oil and then rub in the Jerk seasoning blend on both sides. Place the chicken in a shallow dish and chill for 4-6 hrs or possibly more.
- When ready to cook, heat up a grill (whichever you are using - grill pan, charcoal grill, gas grill, or possibly GF Grill). Cook chicken till soft but done, when you puncture it you should not see any pink and the juices should run clear. About halfway, turn the chicken over. This should take around 15-20 min.
- For Vinaigrette: Combine the cilantro, vinegar, lime juice, garlic, onion and honey in a blender and puree. With the motor running, slowly add in the oil till emulsified. Season to taste with salt and pepper and pour into a squeeze bottle. May be prepared up to 1 day ahead and refrigerated. Bring to room temperature before serving. makes 1 c..
