Cooking Instructions for making Jerk Chicken Breast in the Crockpot with Vegetables
For Chicken:
3 boneless skinless chicken breast
1 teaspoon dried jerk seasoning blend
2 tablespoons butter
For sauce:
¼ cup soy sauce
2 tablespoons molasses
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 teaspoon dried jerk seasoning blend
1 small clove garlic, minced
1 pinch finely diced habanero pepper, seeds removed (or more if you like spicy)
Melt butter in skillet over medium high heat (closer to high).
Season both sides of chicken with a little seasoning and place in hot pan.
Sear on each side for 2-3 minutes until lightly browned.
Transfer to slow cooker
In small bowl whisk together sauce ingredients.
Pour over chicken.
Cover and cook on high for 3-4 hours or low for 6-8 until chicken is fully cooked.
Add vegetables at 4 hour mark.
NOTES:
I cooked this on high in my 3.5 quart slow cooker for 5 hours.
Be very careful when dicing habanero not to get juices on your skin (wear gloves if needed). It is very spicy so use only a little pinch unless you enjoy spicier flavors.
