Ingredients

• 4 (6 inch) flour tortillas
• ¼ cup chicken broth, or more as needed
• 2 tablespoons jerk seasoning, divided
• 2 (5 ounce) skinless, boneless chicken breasts
• 2 tablespoons jerk paste

Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Put chicken breasts in a zip-top bag and add jerk paste and 1 tablespoon jerk dry seasoning. Marinate in the refrigerator for 1 hour. You can prepare charcoal grill while the chicken marinates.

Step 2

While chicken marinates, preheat a charcoal grill to high heat.

Step 3

Place chicken on the, "cool," side of the grill and cover. Cook, checking every 5 to 7 minutes, until chicken is no longer pink in the centers. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the centers should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).

Step 4

Let cool enough to handle, 5 to 10 minutes; cut into bite-sized pieces.

Step 5

Pour chicken broth into a saucepan. Add diced chicken and remaining jerk dry seasoning. Mix well, reduce heat, cover, and let simmer for 10 to 15 minutes. Add a little more broth at a time if needed.

Step 6

Remove from heat and transfer chicken to tortillas with any toppings you prefer before serving.
