Bahama Breeze Chicken Entrees & Prices
The Bahama Breeze chicken entrees cover the middle of the menu in both price and appetite — they're more substantial than a sandwich but gentler on the check than the steaks or lobster plates, mostly landing between $9.99 and $13.49. The range spans grilled, jerk-spiced and buttermilk-fried preparations, so you can go light and clean or fully comfort-food depending on your mood. Several also come in a "Lighter Portion," which is a nice touch if you want the flavor without a full-size plate.
The signature island move here is the jerk seasoning: the Jerk Chicken Pasta blends Caribbean spice with a creamy pasta, and it's one of the more distinctive things on the whole menu. If you'd rather keep it simple, the Grilled Chicken with Cilantro-Crema and the Wood-Grilled Chicken Breast are the cleaner grilled options, while the Buttermilk Fried Chicken Breast is the indulgent, Southern-leaning pick. It's a small section, but it's well balanced across cooking styles.

What to order
For a first taste of the island theme, the Jerk Chicken Pasta is the standout — it's the dish that best marries Caribbean spice with comfort food. If you want something lighter and grilled, the Grilled Chicken with Cilantro-Crema at $9.99 is the best value in the section. The Buttermilk Fried Chicken Breast is the pick for a craving that leans Southern rather than tropical. If you're counting on a smaller plate, look for the "Lighter Portion" versions, which give you the same flavors in a reduced size.
Torn between proteins? The seafood entrées and beef & pork entrées sit on either side of this section, and the rice bowls offer a lighter, quicker chicken option in the West Indies Chicken Curry.
