Instructions

  1. Add the chicken to a large bowl or ziploc bag (put that bag in a bowl in case of leakage).
  2. In a food processor add the green onions, onion, jalapeno, soy sauce, vinegar, vegetable oil, brown sugar, thyme, cloves, nutmeg and allspice and puree until smooth.
  3. Add the marinade to the chicken and leave for as long as you can, up to 24 hours.
  4. Heat your grill of choice, indoor or outdoor onto medium high heat.
  5. Lightly oil (I use canola oil on a paper towel and wipe it on my grilling surface).
  6. Grill on each side for 5-7 minutes (depending on the thickness of your chicken), until the chicken is completely cooked through.
