For the chicken:

Instructions
- Cut all chicken thighs in half lengthways
- In a mixing bowl, combine juice of limes, cilantro and oil.
- Marinate the chicken thighs for at least 2 hours.

Notes
- We recommend using chicken thighs for this recipe because they are moist and juicy, and they absorb the jerk flavors very well.
