Description: RECIPE: anitacooks.com/jamaican-jerk-chicken Hi Guys, today I’ll show you How to Make Jamaican Jerk Chicken. You can make this recipe on the grill or in the oven. This is the from scratch version. If you want an easier recipe, I’ll put a link below to my other video on Jamaican Chicken. For this recipe, I’m using a whole chicken cleaned and cut up into 8 pieces. Fresh limes and oranges to juice. Scotch bonnet chili peppers or habaneros.These are extremely spicy so just use one if you can’t take the heat. For the spices, ground cinnamon, nutmeg, allspice and ginger. Sugar, salt and ground black pepper. Yellow onion cut into big chunks, whole peeled garlic cloves and fresh thyme leaves. Sub 1.5 tsp dried thyme. First, I’ll juice the oranges and limes. To a food processor, add the cut up onion and garlic cloves, chili peppers, thyme leaves, sugar salt ground black pepper and spices. Pulse, then add the orange and lime juice. It’s a very spicy marinade with just 2 peppers. So use 1 if you want it milder. You can also take the seeds out of the peppers before using. Mix the marinade into the chicken. It is best to use gloves otherwise your hands may burn a little especially if you’re not used to chilis. Cover and refrigerate for at least 6 hours. Overnight is best. Heat up your gas grill or charcoal. Cover and heat the grill for a few minutes. Push the coals to one side and place the chicken on the other side. Cover and cook the chicken at about 300 degrees for 40 minutes, longer for larger pieces. To make this in your oven, cook at 350 for 45 minutes. Put the chicken under the broiler for a few minutes at the end. The chicken is spicy and very tasty. I do hope you like this recipe. Easy Jamaican Style Chicken Recipe: youtu.be/xE-nYMm8cp8
