Ingredients

8 Chicken legs

8 Chicken thighs

1 Large Spanish onion, roughly chopped

3 Scallions

1 tbsp Allspice

3 Sprigs fresh thyme

1 tsp Ground nutmeg

66 ml Soy sauce

1 Scotch bonnet

2 tbsp Malt vinegar

3 tbsp Rum (optional)

2 tbsp Lime juice

110 g Brown sugar

120 ml Ginger beer

2 Garlic cloves

2 Limes

1 Avocado

Method

Place chicken legs and thighs into a 7.5 litre sealable plastic bag.

To create the marinade, place onion, scallions, allspice, thyme, nutmeg, soy sauce, scotch bonnet, malt vinegar, rum, lime juice, brown sugar, ginger beer, and garlic cloves into a blender. Blend until the ingredients become a smooth purée.

Pour half of the marinade over your chicken in the plastic bag. Let chicken marinate in the refrigerator for 12 to 24 hours.

Place chicken on a grill over low to medium heat. Try not to move the chicken pieces until the chicken has a good sear.

Baste chicken pieces with the remaining marinade every 10 minutes.

Cook until juices run clear (approximately 1–1 1⁄2 hours) depending on the size of your chicken pieces.

Enjoy with rice & beans, avocado and limes.

If you have an outdoor grill, try grilling with pimento wood for exceptional flavour.
