Is Jamaican Jerk Chicken Supposed To Be Dry?
No, Jamaican Jerk Chicken is not supposed to be dry. In fact, the chicken should be juicy and tender on the inside with a slightly crispy and smoky exterior from grilling over hot coals or wood. The dryness of the chicken may be due to overcooking or not marinating the chicken in the jerk seasoning for a sufficient amount of time before cooking. Properly prepared Jamaican Jerk Chicken should be bursting with spicy and flavorful juices with every bite.
