Instructions

Mango Habanero Sauce

In a medium sized skillet over medium-high heat, heat a teaspoon of oil. When the oil is hot add the diced onion, garlic and ginger and sauté for 2-3 minutes or until the onion starts to soften.

Add in the diced mango and minced habanero and sauté for another 2-3 minutes. Pour the mixture into a blender or food processor along with the honey, lime juice and salt to taste and blend until smooth.

Let the sauce cool, then store in an airtight container in the refrigerator until ready to serve. The sauce may be served cold or warmed in the microwave.

Jerk Chicken

Blend all of the marinade ingredients together in a blender or food processor until smooth or nearly smooth. Add the piece of chicken to a gallon sized freezer bag along with the marinade and seal the bag. Massage the marinade into the chicken then store it in the refrigerator for 1-2 hours.

After the chicken has marinated, preheat your grill to medium-high heat. While the grill is heating skewer the pieces of chicken.

Spray or brush the grill grates with oil then place the chicken skewers on. Grill the chicken for approximately 3-4 minutes depending on the size then use tongs to flip them over and grill for another 3-4 minutes or until they are cooked through.

Serve the jerk chicken with the mango habanero sauce for dipping or drizzled over the chicken. Brown rice and black beans go great with the chicken and sauce as well.
