Directions:
Directions:
Chicken – A whole chicken goes into this recipe, but this recipe is so delicious a family of four can devour the entire chicken in one sitting. Cut it up into 10 pieces or use 10 pieces of your preferred chicken cuts.
• Dry Spices – Homemade jerk seasoning (the dry kind), onion and garlic powder, and a little S&P get rubbed onto the chicken before we douse it with the wet marinade.
• Jerk Marinade – Here’s where things really get flavorful! Blended herbs, including fresh thyme, garlic, green onion, habanero peppers, and ginger, mix with soy sauce, brown sugar, a few warm spices like allspice, and pineapple juice come together for an authentic flavor explosion
• Prep Chicken – Trim chicken of excess fat and pat dry with a cloth or paper napkin.
• Season – Rub the chicken with salt and freshly ground pepper, jerk seasoning, garlic, and onion powder. Set aside while you make the wet marinade.
• Start Marinade – In a food processor or blender, combine the following: thyme, green onions, garlic, ginger, and habanero pepper. Pulse for about 30 seconds until blended.
• Marinate – Mix the soy sauce, brown sugar, allspice, cinnamon, nutmeg, chicken
bouillon, and water or pineapple juice and pour it over the chicken.
• Spice it Up- Add the blended herbs and seasonings to complete the jerk marinade.
• Chill – After drenching the chicken with jerk marinade, refrigerate it in a Ziplock bag for at least 3hrs, preferably overnight.
