Jamaican Chicken With Pineapple And Rum Recipes

Steps:

• Combine all ingredients in small bowl. Place chicken in food storage bag. Pour marinade over chicken. Refrigerate 4 hours or overnight, turning bag once or twice.
• Spray grill with cooking spray. Grill chicken until no longer pink.

Steps:

• Cook the rice by following the package directions; while the rice cooks, make the chicken and sauce.
• Cut the pineapple into bite-size pieces.
• Heat a medium saucepan over med-high heat.
• Add in 1 tablespoon vegetable oil; add in the onions, garlic, salt, and crushed red pepper flakes; cook, stirring frequently, for 2 minutes.
• Add in the pineapple chunks and the juice from the container (no more than ½ cup); stir to combine.
• Remove the pan from the heat; add in the spiced rum.
• Return the pan to the heat, keeping a little distance in case the pot flames up.
• You can flame it on purpose, if you want to look cool.
• Either way, let the alcohol cook away, 1 minute.
• Add in the chicken stock and bring the mixture to a simmer, then cook until it reduces hy half and has thickened slightly.
• While the sauce is simmering, preheat a large nonstick skillet over med-high heat with the remaining 2 tablespoons oil.
• Season the chicken with salt and pepper, then add to the hot skillet.
• Cook chicken for 6 minutes on each side (for a smoky taste, grill the chicken on a grill pan or on an outdoor grill).
• Slice breasts and return to the large skillet.
• Pour in the pineapple and sauce and combine with a good shake of the pan.
• Add in the parsley and cilantro; turn off the heat.
• Let stand for a minute or two.
• Serve up the jasmine rice and top with a liberal amount of the Island Bird.

Steps:

• Whizz all the ingredients for the marinade in a blender to form a thick paste. It shouldn't be too runny, similar to the consistency of sweet chilli sauce. Taste and adjust seasoning if needed. Will keep in an airtight container in the fridge for up to three weeks.
• Slit the chicken skin with a sharp knife, then put into a container. Pour over the jerk marinade, making sure the chicken is completely covered. You may not need all the marinade. Cover the chicken and place in the fridge for at least 4 hrs, but ideally 24 hrs.
• Heat the oven to 220C/200C fan/gas 7. Put the chicken in an ovenproof dish, cover with foil and cook for 30-45 mins. Remove the foil and baste the chicken with the juices from the dish, then cook for a further 10 mins. The skin should start to crisp up. Check the meat is cooked by cutting into the deepest part of the chicken. If the juices run out red, return to the oven for 10 mins more, or until the juices run clear. Serve with rice & peas or any of your favourite side dishes.

Steps:

• Prepare a glass dish large enough to hold the chicken pieces.
• To make the rub, combine all rub ingredients.
• Place the washed and dried chicken pieces in the glass dish.
• Rub the pieces all over with oil.
• Then rub the seasonings all over the chicken pieces to coat well.
• Cover and refrigerate for minimum 3 hours.
• Meanwhile, prepare the glaze.
• To make glaze, combine butter, sugar, dark rum and pineapple juice in a saucepan; bring to a boil.
• Reduce heat to medium, and simmer for 8-10 minutes; remove from heat, and set aside until ready to grill.
• After 3 hours, prepare the grill to high heat.
• Arrange the chicken pieces on the grill.
• Brush with glaze, turning the chicken until brown and cooked.
• When serving, drizzle with any remaining sauce.
• Delicious!

Steps:

• Combine green onion, orange juice, ginger, jalapeno, lime juice, soy sauce, garlic, allspice, cinnamon, and cloves in resealable container. Seal and shake to combine. Add chicken and coat; marinate for 8 hours.
• Preheat an outdoor grill for medium heat and lightly oil the grate. Remove chicken; reserve marinade.
• Cook chicken on the preheated grill until no longer pink in the center and juices run clear, turning halfway through, 12 to 15 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 170 degrees F (77 degrees C).
• Meanwhile, bring reserved marinade to a boil in a small saucepan. Reduce heat; simmer, uncovered, until slightly thickened, about 5 minutes. Drizzle over cooked chicken.
