How to Make Caribbean Chicken Fingers

  1. Preheat your broiler. In a shallow dish, whisk together 2 tablespoons brown sugar, 1 teaspoon seasoned salt, 1/4 cup finely chopped onion, 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon, and 1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes (or more, to taste).
  2. Add 1 pound of chicken tenders or strips to the spice mixture, ensuring they are evenly coated.
  3. Place the coated chicken on a greased baking sheet. Broil for 5-7 minutes per side, or until the chicken is cooked through and reaches an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C).
  4. Serve immediately and enjoy the sweet and spicy flavors of the Caribbean!
