• 准备时间: 10 minutes
• 总时间: 2 hours 50 minutes

配料

1 whole chicken (cut up, or use your favorite cuts)

4-6 Scotch Bonnet peppers (chopped)

1 small red onion (chopped)

4-6 garlic cloves (chopped)

4 stalks scallions (ends trimmed)

1/4 cup soy sauce

1/4 cup vinegar (use white vinegar or apple cider vinegar to your preference)

2 tablespoons olive oil

Juice from 1 large orange about ¾ cup (orange juice)

Juice from half a lime (lime juice)

1 tablespoon freshly grated ginger

2 tablespoons brown sugar

1 teaspoon nutmeg

1 teaspoon allspice

1 teaspoon cinnamon

1 teaspoon dried thyme or use fresh if available

Salt and pepper to taste (I usually use 1 teaspoon salt and 1 tablespoon black pepper)

步骤

Make Marinade

For the jerk marinade, add all of the marinade ingredients to a food processor or blender and process until smooth.

Poke Chicken

Next, poke some holes in your chicken with a knife to let the marinade permeate more deeply.

Marinate Chicken

Set the chicken into a large bowl or into a sealable baggie. Pour the marinade over the chicken and rub it down. You can to completely cover the chicken with the marinade.

Refrigerate

Cover and refrigerate. Marinate the chicken at least 2 hours, though you'll get more flavor penetration if you plan ahead and refrigerate overnight. Discard marinade.

Grill

TO GRILL THE CHICKEN. Heat a charcoal or gas grill to medium-high heat and lightly oil the grill grates. Grill the chicken for 12-20 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through. It should measure 165 degrees F internally.

Cook Chicken

TO BAKE THE CHICKEN. Heat your oven to 400 degrees F. Bake the chicken for 35-40 minutes, or until the chicken is cooked through. It should measure 165 degrees F internally. Grilling is more traditional, but baking is easy.

Serve

Remove from heat and serve.
