Marinating and Cooking
- In a medium bowl, whisk together jerk seasoning, soy sauce, lime juice, brown sugar, minced garlic, grated ginger, and chopped scotch bonnet pepper. Add the chicken thighs, ensuring they're well-coated, then cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour, or overnight.
- While the chicken marinates, dice fresh pineapple, red onion, and red bell pepper, and chop cilantro. Combine these with lime juice, olive oil, salt, and pepper in a separate bowl. Mix well and adjust seasoning, then cover and refrigerate the salsa.
- Heat a grill pan or heavy skillet over medium-high heat and add oil to prevent sticking. Cook the marinated chicken thighs for 6-8 minutes on each side, until cooked through. Let it rest before slicing.
- Prepare the rice according to package instructions. Optionally use chicken broth for added flavor. Fluff the rice once cooked.
- Assemble the bowl with rice, sliced chicken, pineapple salsa, and garnish with cilantro and lime wedges.
