GRILLED JERK-SPICED CHICKEN WINGS WITH MANGO SAUCE



Grilled Jerk-Spiced Chicken Wings with Mango Sauce image

At one of the highest levels of heat comes one of Jamaica's most famous exports. Not reggae, not rum...JERK CHICKEN. We can handle the heat, but we're not here to show off how much pain we can tolerate. Looking to hit a delicate balance between heat and flavor, we made a fiery jerk-inspired spice rub for chicken wings and added a sweet and spicy mango-cilantro sauce to temper the heat.

Number Of Ingredients 19

2 tablespoons paprika
1 teaspoon cayenne
2 teaspoons ground allspice
1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1/2 tablespoon garlic powder
1/4 teaspoon ground cloves
1 teaspoon minced ginger
2 cloves garlic, minced
2 teaspoons minced fresh thyme
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
2 pounds chicken wings, separated at the joint
1/3 cup orange juice
1/2 cup mango jam
1 tablespoon honey
1/4 cup cilantro leaves, plus more for garnish
1 tablespoon finely grated orange zest
2 scallions, chopped
1 Scotch bonnet pepper, chopped (see Cook's Note)

Steps:

  • Prepare a grill for high indirect heat (for a charcoal grill, bank coals on one side of grill; for a gas grill, leave one or two burners off).
  • For the wings: Add the paprika, cayenne, allspice, nutmeg, garlic powder, cloves, ginger, minced garlic, thyme, salt and pepper to a small bowl and stir to combine. Reserve 1 tablespoon of the spice mixture for the mango sauce.
  • Put the chicken wings in a large bowl with the remaining spice mixture. Toss to evenly coat. Reserve the wings while you make the sauce.
  • For the mango-cilantro sauce: Put the orange juice, mango jam, 1 tablespoon reserved spice mixture, honey, cilantro, orange zest, scallions and Scotch bonnet in a blender. Blend until smooth. Pour into a bowl and reserve at room temperature while you grill the wings.
  • Place the chicken wings on the grill over the indirect heat zone. Cover and grill for 5 minutes. Flip the wings and continue to cook for an additional 5 minutes. Move the wings directly over the heat and cook until nicely charred and cooked through, about 5 minutes.
  • Remove the wings from the grill and toss with the reserved sauce. Pile onto a platter and garnish with chopped cilantro.

1/4 cup dried thyme
1 tablespoon dry mustard
1 tablespoon kosher salt
1 tablespoon freshly ground black pepper
12 boneless, skin-on chicken breasts (buy bone-in breasts and cut meat from bone)
For chutney
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
1 small red onion, thinly sliced
1 large ripe but firm mango, peeled, pitted, and cut into 1/2-inch dice (about 1 cup)
1/2 cup cider vinegar
2 tablespoons (packed) brown sugar
1/8 teaspoon ground allspice
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
For Scotch bonnet sauce:
7 Scotch bonnet chiles with seeds, finely diced (wear gloves when handling chiles)
1/3 cup yellow deli mustard, such as French's
1/3 cup freshly squeezed orange juice (from about 1 orange)
2 tablespoons fresh lime juice (from about 1 lime)
1 tablespoon (packed) brown sugar
1/8 teaspoon curry powder
1/8 teaspoon ground cumin
1/8 teaspoon ground coriander
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • In blender or food processor, purée oil, chiles, scallions, thyme, dry mustard, salt, and pepper until smooth. Arrange chicken in large glass baking dish and coat on all sides with paste. Cover and refrigerate at least 1 hour and up to 4 hours.
  • Make chutney:
  • In medium sauté pan over moderate heat, heat oil until hot but not smoking. Add onion and sauté, stirring occasionally, until translucent, 7 to 9 minutes. Add mango and vinegar and cook, stirring frequently, until mango is tender, about 3 minutes. Stir in brown sugar and allspice and simmer gently until sugar is melted and mixture is slightly thickened and syrupy, about 3 to 5 minutes. Stir in salt and pepper. Transfer chutney to serving dish and cool to room temperature, stirring occasionally.
  • Make Scotch bonnet sauce:

  • Cook chicken
  • Prepare grill for cooking: If using charcoal grill, open vents on bottom, then light charcoal. Charcoal fire is medium-hot when you can hold your hand 5 inches above rack for 4 to 5 seconds. If using gas grill, preheat burners on high with hood closed 10 minutes, then turn down to moderately high.
  • Arrange chicken breasts on grill, skin sides down. Grill, turning once, until cooked through, about 7 to 9 minutes per side. Transfer breasts to platter and top each with spoonful of mango chutney. Serve, passing additional chutney and hot sauce on side.

How to Make Grilled Jerk Chicken

Yield Makes 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 19

For jerk marinade:
3 scallions, chopped
4 large garlic cloves, chopped
1 small onion, chopped
4 to 5 fresh Scotch bonnet or habanero chile, stemmed and seeded
1/4 cup fresh lime juice
2 tablespoons soy sauce
3 tablespoons olive oil
1 1/2 tablespoons salt
1 tablespoon packed brown sugar
1 tablespoon fresh thyme leaves
2 teaspoons ground allspice
2 teaspoons black pepper
3/4 teaspoon freshly grated nutmeg
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
For chicken:
4 chicken breast halves with skin and bones (3 pounds), halved crosswise
2 1/2 to 3 pounds chicken thighs and drumsticks
Accompaniment: papaya salsa

Steps:

  • Make marinade:
  • Blend all marinade ingredients in a blender until smooth.
  • Marinate and grill chicken:
  • Divide chicken pieces and marinade between 2 sealable plastic bags. Seal bags, pressing out excess air, then turn bags over several times to distribute marinade. Put bags of chicken in a shallow pan and marinate, chilled, turning once or twice, 1 day.
  • Let chicken stand at room temperature 1 hour before cooking.
  • To cook chicken using a charcoal grill:
  • Open vents on bottom of grill and on lid. Light a large chimney of charcoal briquettes (about 100) and pour them evenly over 1 side of bottom rack (you will have a double or triple layer of charcoal).
  • When charcoal turns grayish white and you can hold your hand 5 inches above rack for 3 to 4 seconds, sear chicken in batches on lightly oiled rack over coals until well browned on all sides, about 3 minutes per batch. Move chicken as seared to side of grill with no coals underneath, then cook, covered with lid, until cooked through, 25 to 30 minutes more.
  • To cook chicken using a gas grill:
  • Preheat burners on high, then adjust heat to moderate. Cook chicken until well browned on all sides, 15 to 20 minutes. Adjust heat to low and cook chicken, covered with lid, until cooked through, about 25 minutes more.
  • Serve chicken with salsa.

GRILLED JERK CHICKEN



Grilled Jerk Chicken image

Spicy Caribbean-style jerk chicken cooked slowly on a warm grill reminds me of my trips to the islands as a sailor. Good main. A little time consuming putting the marinade together but well worth it. Don't worry if you don't have all the ingredients, use what you have. You can double the dry ingredients and save for your next dinner party.

1 ½ teaspoons ground sage

Tips:

  • Choose bone-in, skin-on chicken breasts or thighs for maximum flavor and juiciness.
  • Make sure your jerk marinade is flavorful and well-balanced. Use a combination of spices, herbs, and citrus juices to create a complex flavor profile.
  • Don't be afraid to adjust the heat level of your jerk marinade to your liking. Use more or less scotch bonnet peppers, depending on your desired spiciness.
  • Allow the chicken to marinate for at least 30 minutes, but preferably overnight, to allow the flavors to fully penetrate the meat.
  • Preheat your grill to medium-high heat before cooking the chicken. This will help to create a nice char on the outside of the chicken while keeping the inside moist.
  • Cook the chicken until it is cooked through, but not overcooked. Overcooked chicken will be dry and tough.
  • Serve the jerk chicken with a variety of sides, such as rice and peas, roasted vegetables, or mango chutney.

Conclusion:

Grilled jerk chicken is a delicious and flavorful dish that is perfect for a summer cookout or party. The combination of spicy jerk marinade, tender chicken, and sweet and tangy mango chutney is sure to please everyone. With a little planning and preparation, you can easily make this dish at home.
