Ingredients:
- Olive Oil Spray
- 1 Can Black Beans
- 1/2 Cup Cilantro
- 2 large Lime
- 4 Chicken Breasts
- Fresh Cut Salsa
- Tomatillo Salsa
- Pico de Gallo
- Red Onion Diced

Instructions:
- **Prepare Chicken:** Arrange the chicken on a tray and lightly coat with olive oil using a spray.
- **Season with Flavor:** Sprinkle the "HSRC Jamaican Jerk" seasoning generously on all sides of the chicken for an explosion of flavor.
- **Preheat Smoker/Grill:** Set your smoker or grill to a temperature between 350-375 degrees Fahrenheit. Once ready, place the seasoned chicken breasts on the grates for a tantalizing smoke-infused experience.
- **Prepare Fresh Ingredients:** Dice the red onion, chop cilantro, and either craft a fresh salsa (fresh cut and/or Tomatillo salsa) or acquire one from your local market while the chicken is grilling.
- **Quinoa Enhancement:** Follow the Quinoa packaging instructions, using "chicken broth" instead of water for an elevated taste.
- **Mid-Grill Refresh:** After approximately 30 minutes, flip the chicken and spritz with lime juice. Ensure the internal temperature reaches a safe and optimal 165 degrees Fahrenheit.
- **Rest and Assemble:** Once cooked, carefully remove the chicken and let it rest for 15 minutes. Assemble your bowl by layering quinoa, grilled chicken, vibrant salsa, chopped red onion, and a sprinkle of cilantro.
- **Flavor Finale:** Drizzle the bowl with a squeeze of zesty fresh lime juice & Jamaican Jerk seasoning. Your delightful Jamaican Jerk Quinoa Bowl is now ready to be savored!
