Jamaican Jerk Grilled Chicken
Report
This jerk seasoning is BURSTING with amazing Caribbean flavors- spicy, savory, salty, sweet, and extremely aromatic with the addition of allspice, cinnamon, and nutmeg. Use the seasoning on grilled chicken, fish, or vegetables, or mix with melted butter and brush on corn on the cob. You will want to put it on EVERYTHING!

Ingredients
- 1 lbs. chicken drumsticks or thighs, or breasts
- 4 ears corn husked
- 1 tablespoon butter melted
- 2 scallions sliced thinly and finely chopped
- 1 large or 2 small jalapenos finely chopped de-seed if you do not want it to be spicy
- 2 cloves garlic minced
- 1/2 tablespoon dried minced onion
- 1/2 tablespoon ground allspice
- 1/2 teaspoon Fresh cracked pepper
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
- 1/2 teaspoon dried thyme
- 2 tablespoons soy sauce
- 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
- 1 tablespoon honey
Instructions
- Combine all ingredients (except for the chicken and corn) in a gallon-sized freezer bag, bowl, or container. Reserve 1 teaspoon seasoning.
- Add chicken to bag or bowl; toss to coat.
- Marinate in refrigerator for at least 20 minutes, but preferably overnight.
- Sear chicken skin-side down on grill pan or heavy skillet for approximately 2 minutes. Grill on other side for approximately 2 minutes. Transfer chicken to baking sheet (or keep in skillet if oven proof). Bake the chicken at 375 for approximately 20 minutes or until cooked. (alternatively, you can bake the chicken for the entire time for 30 minutes, or until cooked.)
- Meanwhile, cook corn however you like (I recommend boiling or grilling).
- When chicken and corn are ready, mix melted butter with reserved jerk seasoning and brush on corn.
- Eat with lots of napkins.
