What a way to spice it up?! This INCREDIBLE Jerk chicken bowl is just what we need to start our week off on a spicy note. If you can’t tell already, we really love plantains. Plantains are a trusted and most loved side in many Jamaican and Caribbean recipes, so we thought it was a perfect pairing with the jerked chicken-pairing spicy and sweet is always a good idea.
