For a deeper, more complex flavor, consider adding a tablespoon of soy sauce or Worcestershire sauce to the marinade. Adjust the amount of cayenne pepper to your preference. If you prefer a milder flavor, reduce the amount to 1/8 teaspoon, or omit it altogether. For extra crispy skin, pat the chicken pieces dry with paper towels before placing them in the baking dish. Serve with rice and peas, steamed vegetables, or a fresh salad for a complete and satisfying meal. Leftover baked jerk chicken can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.

Jun 9, 2025I've tried many jerk chicken recipes, but this one is by far the best. The baking method ensures the chicken stays moist, and the broiling step gives it a nice crispy skin.
