Steps:

  • Put chicken breasts in a zip-top bag and add jerk paste and 1 tablespoon jerk dry seasoning. Marinate in the refrigerator for 1 hour. You can prepare charcoal grill while the chicken marinates.
  • While chicken marinates, preheat a charcoal grill to high heat.
  • Place chicken on the, "cool," side of the grill and cover. Cook, checking every 5 to 7 minutes, until chicken is no longer pink in the centers. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the centers should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).
  • Let cool enough to handle, 5 to 10 minutes; cut into bite-sized pieces.
  • Pour chicken broth into a saucepan. Add diced chicken and remaining jerk dry seasoning. Mix well, reduce heat, cover, and let simmer for 10 to 15 minutes. Add a little more broth at a time if needed.
  • Remove from heat and transfer chicken to tortillas with any toppings you prefer before serving.

Steps:

  • Whisk mayonnaise, 1 tablespoon jerk seasoning, and 1 tablespoon lime juice together in a small bowl. Set aside.
  • Whisk olive oil, remaining jerk seasoning, and remaining lime juice together in a separate bowl. Add chicken and stir to coat.
  • Preheat an outdoor grill for medium-high heat and lightly oil the grate.
  • Place pineapple slices on the top rack of the grill. Place chicken directly on the grill. Cook for 6 minutes. Flip both pineapple and chicken over and grill until chicken is no longer pink, about 6 minutes more. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center of the chicken should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C). Transfer to a cutting board and let rest for 5 minutes.
  • Slice the chicken into thin strips and divide between the tortillas. Chop the pineapple and divide between the tortillas.
  • Top each each taco with shredded cabbage, onion, and cilantro. Drizzle each with reserved sauce. Serve immediately.
