Authentic Jerk Chicken Recipe

Marinade Ingredients

Gather your ingredients

In addition to the marinade ingredients, you'll need one whole chicken and half a cup lime juice.

Make the marinade

Pulse the marinade ingredients in a food processor or blender until smooth. Place the chicken in a large freezer bag, or in a large non-reactive bowl. Pour lime juice over the chicken and coat well.

Coat the chicken

Coat the chicken pieces evenly and thoroughly with the jerk paste. Cover or seal the chicken and refrigerate for 3-4 hours or overnight.

Prepare extra sauce

Remove chicken from the marinade bag or pan. Bring the remaining marinade to a boil in a small saucepan. Reduce heat and simmer for 10 minutes. Set aside to use as a basting sauce for the chicken.

Grill the chicken

Preheat your grill to 400 °F. Add salt and pepper to the chicken halves and place them skin side down on the grill. Cover and cook for about 40-50 minutes.

Continue to baste

Turn the chicken occasionally and continue to baste them with marinade. You'll know the chicken is done when the juices run clear when a knife tip is inserted into both the chicken breast and thigh.

Let the chicken rest

Once the chicken is cooked through, transfer the chicken to a large platter and tent loosely with foil. Let stand 15 minutes.

Serve with sides

Cut chicken into pieces. Serve with black beans and rice, and Central American-style fermented cabbage relish
