Copycat Bahama Breeze's Jamaican Jerk Grilled Chicken Wings
I've said it before, and I will say it again; I love spicy food!!!
My girlfriend Katie and I go out once a week to enjoy some hot and spicy
wings. When I found this recipe for Bahama Breeze's Jamaican Jerk
Grilled Chicken Wings I knew we were in for a treat. So spicy and so
flavorful! I highly recommend you try these for your Super Bowl
parties!
Serves: 6
Ready In: 2-5 hrs
Ingredients:
Jerk Marinated Chicken Wings
5 pounds Chicken Wings whole, thawed
3 tablespoons Garlic, chopped
1 tablespoon Thyme, fresh chopped
1 teaspoon Allspice, ground
1 cup Water
1/8 cup Scallions, sliced
Jerk Seasoning (Dry) as needed
Jamaican Marinade
1/4 cup olive oil
2 tablespoons Jamaican Jerk seasoning
1/4 cup orange juice
1/4 cup rice wine vinegar
1 tablespoon dark Jamaican rum
1/2 cup chopped red onion
1/2 teaspoon creole seasoning
2 green onions, chopped
1 lime, juiced
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 habanero pepper, seeded and minced
Directions:
Marinating Preparation: Add the jerk marinade, garlic, thyme, allspice,
water, and scallions in a large bowl and mix well to evenly combine the
ingredients. Add the chicken wings to the marinade, cover with plastic
wrap and place in the refrigerator.
Make sure the chicken wings are fully thawed this helps the chicken to
fully absorb the marinade. Marinate the chicken wings for 16 to 24 hours
before cooking. The longer the marinating time, the more flavorful the
wings will become.
Cooking Preparation: After marinating is complete, remove the wings from
the marinade and place in a clean bowl. Make sure the wings are drained
well after being removed from the marinade or the seasoning will not
fully adhere to the wings. Lightly season the wings with the dry jerk
seasoning and lay on a sheet pan with the wing tips face down. Bake the
wings at 350 F for 20 a 25 minutes or until fully cooked. Remove from
the oven and place in the refrigerator to chill to 40 F. By
pre-cooking the wings this prevents flare-ups on the grill during the
final grilling procedure
Grilling Preparation: Heat your grill to medium heat. Place the chilled
wings on the grill and grill for 2 1/2 - 3 minutes on each side. The
skin of the wings should develop a crisp texture and a dark color. Make
sure the wings are fully heated to 165 F. Serve hot.
Wings can also be placed on the grill directly from the oven to express
the cooking process. Allspice or pimento leaves can be placed on the
grill during the grilling process to give the wings a light smoked
flavor.
