For an extra layer of flavor, consider marinating the chicken in a mixture of rum, ginger, and allspice for at least 30 minutes before cooking. If you're hesitant to flambé, you can skip the rum-lighting step. Simply add the rum to the skillet and allow it to simmer with the other ingredients. Serve with a side of steamed greens or a fresh salad to balance the richness of the dish.
