I love to grill...wait, I don't grill. I love to eat grilled food, but my husband does the grilling. I would do it... I just can't seem to turn the grill on properly and it frightens me...a little bit...or a lot. So, tonight WE made some yummy grilled chicken fajitas. I used to make these particular chicken fajitas using KC Masterpiece Caribbean Jerk Marinade. I don't have a problem with the taste of the marinade, but when looking at the bottle - I couldn't identify most of the ingredients...problem. Here's my "natural" take on this yummy marinade - it's the perfect recipe for a great grilling night!
Best dishes and yummy dreams!

Little Mommy's Grilled Chicken Fajita Marinade
1 package of fresh chicken breast tenderloins
2 tbsp. low sodium soy sauce
2 tbsp. of white vinegar
2 tbsp. honey
1 tsp. molasses (great source of calcium!)
1 tsp. Sriracha
1/2 tsp. garlic powder
1/2 tsp. onion powder
Sprinkle of red pepper flakes
Splash of lemon or lime juice
*Optional addition- fresh pineapple
Mix all of the ingredients (aside from the chicken) together and pour it into a large ziplock bag.
Add the chicken into the bag and marinate in the refrigerator for a few hours.
Put the tenderloins on skewers and grill them, turning and adding leftover marinade as needed.
We eat ours with sauteed peppers and onions...enjoy!

Thank you Miz Helen! I really enjoyed visiting your site - I added you to my links on my page. Thank you!
I enjoy doing those "joint" meals on the grill.
But give grilling yourself a go sometime -- I did, and I really enjoy it. :-) Now hubby and I take turns -- when he doesn't feel like grilling or is involved in something else, I just pop out to the grill and do it myself. :-)
