Grill or broil the chicken for approximately 7 minutes per side, or until the chicken is cooked through, reaching an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C), and the juices run clear when pierced with a fork. (Cook time: 14 minutes)

For an extra layer of flavor, try adding a pinch of allspice or a dash of dark rum to the marinade.
If you don't have fresh oregano, dried oregano can be substituted. Use about 1/4 teaspoon of dried oregano.
Serve the grilled chicken with a side of rice and beans, grilled vegetables, or a refreshing mango salsa for a complete Caribbean-inspired meal.
