Ingredients

Scale
  • 16 oz boneless, skinless chicken breasts (I used four 4 oz breasts)
  • 1 cup prepared jerk chicken marinade
  • 2 ears fresh corn on the cob, husks and silk removed
  • 1 green pepper, sliced into quarters
  • 1 red pepper, sliced into quarters
  • ¼ fresh pineapple, sliced into rings
  • ½ red onion, sliced into rings
  • 1 cup canned black beans, drained and rinsed
  • 4 cups mixed leafy greens (or 4 cups cooked rice, or a combo of both)
  • 4 tbsp toasted almonds
  • ½ cup pineapple juice
  • 5 tbsp red wine vinegar
  • 1 tbsp brown sugar
  • ¼ cup extra virgin olive oil
  • ½ tsp salt

Instructions

  1. Marinate the chicken: place chicken and jerk marinade in a zip-top bag and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes (preferably overnight).
  2. Preheat grill to medium-high (425–450 °F). Oil the grates. Drizzle corn, peppers, pineapple, and veggies with oil; wrap onions in foil.
  3. Grill corn, vegetables, pineapple, and onion packet until charred and tender; remove and set aside, keeping onions on grill.
  4. Grill chicken about 10 minutes, flipping once, until internal temperature reaches 165 °F; rest 5 minutes, then slice.
  5. Make vinaigrette: blend pineapple juice, red wine vinegar, brown sugar, olive oil, and salt until smooth (or whisk to emulsify).
  6. Assemble bowls: divide greens (or rice) among 4 bowls, top with sliced corn, beans, grilled veggies, pineapple, and chicken. Drizzle dressing and sprinkle almonds.
