I love grilled chicken, but I get tired of same old same old barbeque sauce. This is a tasty option that will satisfy your tastebuds. I love this marinade for my chicken thighs, but don’t limit yourself, chicken breast and chicken legs work well too!
Spicy Jerk Marinade
Ingredients:
½ cup canola oil
¼ cup lime juice
¼ cup soy sauce
½ yellow onion, chopped
¼ cup chopped cilantro
½ tsp thyme
2 tsp. garlic powder
¼ tsp. Ground ginger
2 Tbsp. brown sugar
2 Thai chilis, chopped*
½ tsp. black pepper
½ tsp. salt
1 tsp. allspice
1 tsp. nutmeg
1 tsp. cinnamon
Directions:
Combine all the ingredients except chicken in a large bowl. Stir until all ingredients are combined. Pour ingredients into a resealable bag.
Add the chicken to the bag. Close the bag and roll the chicken in the marinade to cover all the chicken.
Marinade for 8 to 12 hours.
Grill your favorite chicken.
Notes:
*I love using Thai chili peppers, but you can use serrano or jalapeños too. If you can’t take the heat, don’t use any!
