¼ cup vinegar
3 tablespoons orange juice
2 tablespoons lemon juice
2 tablespoons olive oil
2 tablespoons soy sauce
1 ½ teaspoons ground allspice
1 ½ teaspoons dried thyme
1 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1 teaspoon black pepper

1
Combine first 13 ingredients in a large bowl.
2
Stir well.
3
Peel and finely chop the onion and garlic and add them to the bowl.
4
Cut the chicken breast into strips 1/2 inch by 2 inches.
5
Add the chicken to the bowl.
6
Stir carefully to ensure all chicken is covered.
7
Cover and refrigerate for at least 15 minutes or up to 2 hours.
8
Preheat the broiler.
9
Make sure the top rack is in the highest position, just under the broiling unit.
10
Lift the chicken pieces from the marinade and place them on a rack in a roasting pan.
11
The rack lets the juices drip into the pan, allowing the chicken to be grilled rather than half-boiled in the marinade.
12
Put the pan under the broiler, and broil the chicken for 3 to 4 minutes per side, until it is completely white and is just beginning to turn brown.
13
While the chicken is broiling, boil the leftover marinade in a small pot for 2 to 3 minutes.
14
Serve the heated marinade as a dipping sauce or as a sauce for the rice.
