Bob Marleys Restaurant Reggae Jerk Marinated Chicken Breast Skewers Recipes

Steps:

• For the jerk marinade: Combine the brown sugar, lime juice, orange juice, oil, soy sauce, vinegar, allspice, ginger, salt, thyme, cinnamon, nutmeg, garlic, bay leaf, chile and scallion in a food processor and puree. (You can mix in a bowl if you don't have a food processor.)
• For the kebabs: Place the chicken in a gallon-size resealable bag. Pour the marinade over the chicken (reserve any extra marinade for later use). Seal the bag and refrigerate 1 hour.
• Sprinkle the red onion with salt and pepper. Assemble metal skewers with the chicken, red onion, pineapple and peppers, alternating each ingredient. Brush the kebabs with the remaining marinade.
• Preheat a grill to medium-high heat. Spray the grill grates with cooking spray.
• Grill the kebabs until the chicken registers 165 degrees F in the center on an instant-read thermometer, about 4 minutes per side. Serve warm.

Steps:

• Marinade:.
• Mix together onion, scallion, thyme, salt, sugar, allspice, nutmeg, cinnamon, hot pepper, black pepper, soy sauce, oil and vinegar. These ingredients can also be combined in a food processor.
• Skewer 2 1/2 ounces of chicken onto each skewer(about 4 pieces). Place the skewers in a shallow baking dish and cover with the marinade. Marinate in the refrigerator overnight.
• Place the skewers onto a hot grill and grill until done, about 2 to 3 minutes per side.
• For the dipping sauce:.
• Peel and seed cucumbers and roughly chop. Add sour cream and mayonnaise. Add rest of ingredients and puree in a blender. Yield: about 1 1/2 quarts.

Steps:

• Cut the chicken into 20 thin strips, about the size of your small finger. Thread onto 1end of each skewer and place into a bowl until marinade is ready. Keep the bamboo handles all on 1 side so as not to touch the marinade when it is added.
• In a food processor, place the rest of the ingredients and blend until smooth.
• Pour 1/2 the marinade over the chicken only, trying not to touch the skewers. Make sure to coat the chicken entirely. Let sit in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours.
• Place the remainder of the marinade into a small saucepan and add:
• Place over medium heat until thickened and the tomato has broken down, about 30 minutes. Puree, if desired for a smoother consistency. Let cool and serve with the chicken skewers when they are ready.
• To finish, place the chicken end of the skewers over a hot, well-oiled grill and cook about 3 minutes per side. Time might vary depending on how hot the grill is or how thick the chicken is. If a grill is not available, you can place under a broiler for about the same time. Serve with the jerk sauce.
