Ingredients
 

  • 2 lbs chicken breast tenders

For the Jerk

For the Pineapple Yogurt Dip

  • 4 oz plain Greek yogurt
  • ¼ cup crushed pineapple drained
  • ½ tsp cumin
  • 1 tsp fresh lime juice
  • zest of ~1/4 lime
  • pinch kosher salt

Instructions
 

  • In a bowl, whisk together the ingredients for the Jerk forming a paste. Add the chicken and toss to coat evenly. Put in the fridge to marinate 4-8 hours. Put bamboo skewers to soak in water (1 skewer for every chicken tender).
  • Heat the grill to high heat. While grill is heating, combine the ingredients for the Pineapple Yogurt Dip.
  • Skewer the chicken satay-style. Grill, covered, 6-8 minutes or just until chicken is cooked through, flipping once mid-way. On my cheap grill, 3-1/2 minutes per side was just right for juicy, tender chicken. Serve with Pineapple Yogurt Dip. Yields: 6 dinner servings (3 tenders each) or ~18 appetizers.
