Enas Signature Spicy Jerk Chicken And Jerk Sauce Recipes

GRILLED JERK-SPICED CHICKEN WINGS WITH MANGO SAUCE

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.

JAMAICAN JERK SAUCE

Steps:

• Blend green onions, peanut oil, vinegar, allspice, habanero peppers, ginger, garlic, lime juice, brown sugar, thyme, soy sauce, ketchup, peppercorns, and cinnamon in a blender until smooth.

SMOKY AND SPICY JERK-MARINATED CHICKEN

Steps:

• Mix brown sugar, salt, sesame seeds, black pepper, red pepper flakes, chili powder, thyme, coriander, allspice, ginger, nutmeg, cinnamon, and cloves together in a bowl.
• Mix Worcestershire sauce, soy sauce, lime juice, molasses, and liquid smoke together in a separate bowl. Combine with the spice blend to make the marinade.
• Remove tenderloins from chicken breasts and cut the rest of the breasts in half. Reserve about 1/4 of the rub; coat chicken with the remainder and marinate 4 hours to overnight.
• Preheat an outdoor grill for high heat and lightly oil the grate. Grill marinated chicken pieces over direct heat until no longer pink in the centers, 2 to 3 minutes per side. Serve with reserved marinade.
