Bright, zesty, and full of Caribbean character, Caribbean Lemon Chicken brings a fresh, modern look to your counter while keeping the preparation simple and reliable. This dish blends vibrant vegetables, citrus flavour, and gentle spice to create a tray that stands out immediately and appeals to customers searching for something different from their usual chicken options.

The vegetable base becomes full of colour and texture, thanks to the mix of peppers, red onion, spring onion, water chestnuts, and bamboo shoots. When coated with Verstegen Lemon Coriander Sauce Pure, the vegetables transform into a glossy, aromatic layer that adds freshness and natural sweetness. The sauce gives the dish its signature citrus lift, adding brightness that works perfectly with chicken. It also helps the vegetables stay juicy during cooking, ensuring the finished tray feels light yet full of flavour.

The chicken fillets bring the bold Caribbean influence. Coated generously in Verstegen Jamaican Jerk World Grill Pure, they take on a warm, spicy depth typical of jerk seasoning but balanced enough for everyday customers. Because the World Grill is oil-based, it delivers excellent coverage and a premium sheen that looks fantastic in the counter. As the chicken cooks, the jerk spices mingle with the lemon coriander vegetable base, creating a layered flavour that feels lively without overpowering the palate.

A finishing sprinkle of Verstegen Black and White Sesame Seeds gives the tray extra contrast and a crafted, premium appearance. The final touch of thinly sliced spring onion adds a burst of freshness and keeps the dish looking bright and inviting.

With its balance of citrus, spice, and colourful vegetables, Caribbean Lemon Chicken offers great visual appeal and reliable flavour. It’s an easy build for busy butchers and a standout choice for customers wanting something new, vibrant, and full of Caribbean zest.
