1 - Small Red Onion, Roughly Chopped
10 Sprigs - Fresh Thyme, Roughly Chopped 
1/3 Cup (80ml) - Grapeseed Oil 
3 1/2 Tbsp (70ml) - Soy Sauce 
2 Tbsp (40ml) - Worcestershire Sauce 
2 1/2 Tbsp - Brown Sugar 
3 tsp - Ground All Spice 
1/2 tsp - Ground Cinnamon 
1/2 tsp - Ground Cloves 
1 - Lime, Zest and Juice, Plus 1 Extra For Serving

Method - 

1. Add spring onions (scallions), habanero chillies, garlic, ginger, red onion, and fresh thyme in a blender. Blend on high speed until it forms a thick paste. Add all the remaining ingredients, except the chicken and blend to create the jerk marinade. Check seasoning levels. 

2. Score the chicken Maryland skin, making 6-8 slices across. Don’t cut too far into the chicken. Add the marinade to the chicken and combine. Allow to marinate for a minimum of 4 hours up to 48 hours. 

3. Heat your BBQ to maximum temperature. Remove the chicken from the marinade and reserve the remaining marinade for later basting. Place the chicken onto the BBQ and grill for 8-10 minutes or until charred but not burnt. 

4. Baste the remaining marinade over the chicken pieces and cook for 18 minutes or until the chicken is cooked. Remove and rest for 5 minutes. Serve the chicken on a platter and garnish with chopped spring onion (scallion) and charred lime. Dig in. 

Oven Method -

Preheat oven to 190.c - 375.f. Line a large tray with parchment paper.

Place a large pan over medium-high heat. Add 1 tbsp (20ml) of grapeseed or vegetable oil, and once hot, place the marinated chicken skin side down. Sear for 3-4 minutes on each side until golden and lightly charred on the skin. Do this in batches.

Transfer the chicken to the prepared baking tray and bake in the oven for 20 minutes or until an internal temperature of 72.c - 161.f. If you don’t have a thermometer, the chicken will be done at this point. Remove and serve.

Habanero Hot Sauce -    • Can you handle the heat? Habanero Hot...
