Jerk Chicken with Glazed Baby Carrots

This was a burst of flavors that Anthony and I are not used to eating. It was so sweet and savory with different notes of spice.. absolutely delicious!!

Recipe for Chicken

Boneless/Skinless chicken breast

jerk seasonings

1 lime

brown sugar

parsley

butter

Take all ingredients except for the butter and place in a bag to marinate in the fridge(squeeze limes into bag). after 3 hours melt butter in a skillet that can transfer to oven. once melted and hot, sear chicken in pan on both sides(about 3 mins on each side). then transfer to a 375 oven for about 20 mins — use a temp thermometer or until juices run clear. wait about 5 minutes before slicing!!

Recipe for Glazed Carrots

Baby Carrots

Brown sugar

Butter

Chicken Broth

So easy… Just put even parts of all of the above and bring to a boil and reduce in a skillet. add S&P to balance out the sweetness from sugar and carrots… YUM!!

**After both are completed, I placed them on a bed of spring mix tossed with a tiny bit of EVOO… just what the dish needed to feel like you were on an island!!! Enjoy!! OH ya.. dont forget to use those pan drippings for extra flavor on the plate!!
