Jamaican Jerk Chicken Skewers Recipes

• 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:

• In a mixing bowl, combine all of the ingredients except for the meat. Set aside.
• On a cutting board, slice the chicken thighs into 2 inch chunks. Place the chunks into a large resealable plastic bag. Pour the marinade in the plastic bag, seal, and move it all around with your hands, to ensure that the meat is completely covered. Refrigerate overnight.
• To assemble the skewers, soak wooden skewers in water for 30 minutes. Place chicken on skewers. Preheat a grill to medium heat, and grill until meat is cooked through (about 8 minutes in a covered grill, turning once). Serve immediately.

Steps:

• Make jerk rub: In a food processor combine jerk rub ingredients and process to a paste, stopping once or twice to scrape down sides of bowl with a rubber spatula. Cut several small slits in chicken and rub all over with jerk paste. Refrigerate, tightly covered, overnight. Preheat a barbecue grill and adjust heat to low. Grill chicken for about 40 minutes, turning once, until dark brown and crusty. Let cool and slice. Alternatively, bake chicken at 350 degrees F for 50 minutes, then broil 2 to 3 minutes until crisp.
• Make dressing: On work surface sprinkle coarse salt over garlic and chop to a fine paste. Whisk garlic paste with lime juice and a few drops of hot sauce, to taste. Whisk in vegetable oil until emulsified. Assemble salad: In a bowl combine salad ingredients with chicken. Pour dressing over, toss to coat and arrange on a lettuce leaf lined platter.

Steps:

• Smash the allspice as fine as possible using a mortar and pestle. Put in a food processor and add the seasoning salt, peppers, green onions, thyme and 1/2 cup water. Blend to the consistency of lumpy oatmeal and pour into a bowl.
• Rub the chicken with the jerk seasoning and stuff the jerk seasoning between the skin and the meat. Place the chicken pieces into a storage pan and let marinade overnight (at least 12 hours).
• Remove the excess seasoning from the chicken. Heat the grill to high heat (about 350 degrees F) and then place the chicken meat-side down first as to not let the chicken burn too quickly. Flip the chicken every 5 to 7 minutes until the skin has a nice brown color with grill marks, and then every 7 to 10 minutes on lower heat until cooked, around 40 minutes total or until the internal temperature of the chicken reaches 165 degrees F.
• Chop each quarter into 4 to 5 pieces to get the real Jamaican jerk experience.
