JERK CHICKEN WINGS



Jerk Chicken Wings image

These jerk chicken wings were so flavorful, so different, and so additively delicious, that I may have eaten my last Buffalo wing. Okay, I didn't mean that, but these really are amazing; a perfect balance of sweet, sour, salty, and spicy. I'm usually pretty casual about you changing my recipes, but I'm going to have to insist you not change any of the key ingredients, which are, every one of them.

BAHAMA BREEZE JAMAICAN GRILLED CHICKEN WINGS

Make and share this Bahama Breeze Jamaican Grilled Chicken Wings recipe from Food.com.

Provided by The Ohio Valley Mea

Categories     Chicken

Time P1DT20m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

3 cups Caribbean jerk marinade (your favorite)
3 tablespoons garlic, chopped
1 tablespoon fresh thyme, chopped
1 teaspoon ground allspice
1 cup water
4 tablespoons scallions, sliced
5 lbs whole chicken wings, thawed
jamaican jerk spice, dry* as needed

Steps:

  • MARINATING PROCEDURE.
  • Add the jerk marinade, garlic, thyme, allspice, water, and scallions in a large bowl and mix well using a whip to evenly combine the ingredients. Add the chicken wings to the marinade, cover with plastic wrap and place in the refrigerator on the bottom shelf.
  • Tips.
  • * Make sure the chicken wings are fully thawed this helps the chicken to fully absorb the marinade.
  • * Marinate the chicken wings for 18 to 24 hours before cooking. The longer the marinating time, the more flavorful the wings will become.
  • COOKING PROCEDURE.
  • After marinating is complete, remove the wings from the marinade and place in a clean bowl. Lightly season the wings with the dry jerk seasoning and lay on a sheet pan with the wing tips face down. Bake the wings at 350ºF for 20 - 25 minutes or until fully cooked. Remove from the oven and place in the refrigerator to chill to 40ºF.
  • Tips.
  • * Make sure the wings are drained well after being removed from the marinade or the seasoning will not fully adhere to the wings.
  • * The wings are cooked with the wing tips face down, to allow more even cooking and removal of excess fat from the chicken skin.
  • * By pre-cooking the wings this prevents flare-ups on the grill during the final grilling procedure.
  • GRILLING PROCEDURE.
  • Heat your gas or charcoal grill to medium heat. Place the chilled wings on the grill and grill for 2 ½ - 3 minutes on each side. The skin of the wings should develop a crisp texture and a mahogany like color. Make sure the wings are fully heated to 165ºF.
  • Tips.
  • * Wings can also be placed on the grill directly from the oven to express the cooking process.
  • * Allspice or pimento leaves can be placed on the grill during the grilling process to give the wings a light smoked flavor.
  • Serve hot with your favorite beverage. Enjoy!

Tips:

  • Use a flavorful marinade: The marinade is what gives the chicken wings their incredible flavor. Be sure to use a marinade that contains a good balance of sweet, sour, and savory flavors. Some popular ingredients to use in a Caribbean-style marinade include citrus juices, spices, herbs, and rum.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan: When cooking the chicken wings, be sure to not overcrowd the pan. This will prevent the wings from cooking evenly and will make them soggy.
  • Cook the chicken wings until they are crispy: The chicken wings should be cooked until they are crispy on the outside and cooked through on the inside. This will take about 10-12 minutes per side.
  • Serve the chicken wings with your favorite dipping sauce: Caribbean-style chicken wings are traditionally served with a dipping sauce. Some popular dipping sauces include mango chutney, pineapple salsa, and jerk sauce.

Conclusion:

Caribbean-style chicken wings are a delicious and easy-to-make appetizer or main course. They are perfect for parties, potlucks, or game day gatherings. With their flavorful marinade and crispy texture, these chicken wings are sure to be a hit with everyone who tries them.
