Cooking Method:
Caribbean Jerk Chicken
8 pieces of chicken (thighs,breasts, drumsticks)
2 teaspoons of fresh minced ginger
1 scotch bonnet pepper, finely chopped
1/2 small onion, finely chopped
4 teaspoons of allspice
5 cloves of minced garlic
4 teaspoons of brown sugar
50ml olive oil
50ml white wine vinegar
2 tablespoons of lime/lemon juice
1 teaspoon of cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon of black pepper
1/4 teaspoon of salt
2 teaspoons of fresh minced ginger
1 scotch bonnet pepper, finely chopped
1/2 small onion, finely chopped
4 teaspoons of allspice
5 cloves of minced garlic
4 teaspoons of brown sugar
50ml olive oil
50ml white wine vinegar
2 tablespoons of lime/lemon juice
1 teaspoon of cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon of black pepper
1/4 teaspoon of salt
Keep the chicken to one side for now.
Put all the remaining ingredients into a large bowl and mix well. Add the chicken to the bowl and mix thoroughly until all the chicken is coated with the marinate mix. Cover the bowl and refrigerate for 2-3 hours.
Once marinated, place the chicken pieces onto a baking tray and if any marinate is left in the bowl, put over the chicken.
Place into a preheated oven at 200C (180C for fan assisted or Gas mark 6) and cook thoroughly. Test by skewering your meat and making sure the juices run clear (some pieces may cook faster than others). Alternatively cook under a preheated grill, again making sure the chicken has cooked thoroughly.
Baste the meat regularly.
Once cooked, remove from the oven and serve immediately.
