Jerk Drums With Yoghurt Recipes

SPICY YOGURT CHICKEN

Steps:

• With a sharp knife, make a few slashes in each drumstick. Mix the remaining ingredients in a bowl, season to taste. Add the drumsticks, rubbing the mixture well into the meat. If you have time, cover and chill for 30 mins.
• Remove the drumsticks from the marinade, shaking off the excess. Cook them on the barbecue for 20-25 mins, turning occasionally, until cooked through.

GRILLED JERK CHICKEN DRUMSTICKS

Steps:

• Combine the chile, scallions, thyme, vegetable oil, brown sugar, vinegar, allspice and cloves in a large bowl and mix until the sugar dissolves. Stir in 1 1/2 teaspoons salt and a few grinds of pepper. Add the chicken and massage the marinade into the meat, 1 to 2 minutes. Cover and refrigerate at least 8 hours or overnight.
• Preheat a grill to medium. Oil the grates. Remove the chicken from the marinade, shaking off any large pieces of chile or scallion. Season all over with salt and pepper. Grill, covered, turning often, until the chicken is browned and cooked through, 20 to 25 minutes. Serve with lime wedges.

THERMOS YOGHURT

Steps:

• Preheat a heatproof dish and a well fitting lid, or thermos flask with boiling water.
• Heat milk to blood heat 37C/ 98F.
• Put yoghurt into a basin, add a little of the warm milk, stir well and then pour the yoghurt into the pan of milk.
• Stir well, then pour into the warmed dish and cover with the lid.
• Cover the container with a thick cloth and leave in a warm place, such as an airing cupboard, overnight, until the milk clots.
• If a thermos flask is used you do not need a warm place!

JERK CHICKEN DRUMSTICKS

Steps:

• Remove chicken from package; rinse well and place in bowl with 2-3 tablespoons of salt and water to cover. Soak overnight. (You may also drain your yogurt now: put yogurt in strainer fitted with a coffee filter over a container in fridge, overnight. Discard whey (liquid) and proceed.).
• Mix yogurt, ginger and the juice from 1 lime; add chicken drums to marinade for 3 hours or so.
• Mix all seasoning ingredients together in a small bowl.
• Remove drumsticks from yogurt soak and shake off the excess well.
• Sprinkle the seasoning liberally over the drums, making sure to cover all sides.
• Oil your grill racks and set your grill to medium heat; the drums will take an average of 8-12 minutes per side. Please be sure yours are done by checking that the juices run clear. An instant read thermometer should read 165º at the thickest part, NOT touching the bone. Be sure to allow your chicken to rest (at least 5 minutes - to allow the juices to re-distribute) after removing from the grill.
• Enjoy!
