Ingredients
- 4 chicken marylands
Jerk marinade
- ¼ cup fresh thyme leaves, or 1 tbsp dried
- 4 Scotch bonnet chili peppers, stems removed
- 2 shallots, peeled and halved
- 6 cloves garlic, peeled
- 5 cm fresh ginger, peeled and coarsely chopped
- 2 tbsp ground allspice
- 2 tbsp dark brown sugar
- 1 tbsp black pepper
- 1 tbsp apple cider vinegar
- ½ cup vegetable oil
- 2 tbsp soy sauce
- 8 spring onions, white and green parts
- 2 limes, juiced
- Generous pinch salt
- ⅛ tsp liquid smoke
- 2 tbs vegetable oil, for searing
- 1 tsp allspice
- Lime, to serve
Marinating time: 6 hours
Instructions
- Score the chicken marylands to the bone and add to a large bowl.
- Blitz all of the marinade ingredients in a food processor until it forms a smooth paste. Massage the paste into the chicken, wearing gloves if possible as Scotch bonnets are hot. Cover and marinate in the fridge for at least 6-8 hours, ideally overnight or up to 2 days.
- Bring chicken up to room temperature before cooking. Preheat your oven to 170°C.
- Heat a grill pan over medium-high heat. Add a drizzle of vegetable oil to the pan before adding the chicken skin side down. Season with salt and a pinch of allspice on both sides. Grill for a few minutes on both sides so that the skin has begun to char. Transfer to a baking tray and bake in the preheated oven for 45 minutes, basting with the marinade every 10 minutes.
- Serve with a fresh wedge of lime on the side.
