I&#8217;ve heard about jerk chicken quite a bit , read about it , but never really tried it . Until finally yesterday i decided to try to make this popular dish . First you make the marinate for this chicken , and don&#8217;t ask me why they call it jerk . And the ingredients are not that complicated , probably most of you should have it in the pantry already . Garlic , ginger , onion , allspice , if you don&#8217;t have allspice , you can always make your own allspice , which is with ratio 1:1 of cinnamon and clove . I used bone in chicken thighs , you can always use whole cut up chicken also . The recipe can be broiled , but i grilled them last night , the smells was so delicious , and the who would have thought combination of cinnamon , cloves and ginger garlic could be so delicious !! Serve it with rice , or you can grill plantains for a real jamaican dish !<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.oliviaskitchen.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/08\/jamaican-jerk.jpg\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-medium wp-image-3179\" src=\"http:\/\/www.oliviaskitchen.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/08\/jamaican-jerk-300x300.jpg\" alt=\"jamaican jerk\" width=\"300\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.oliviaskitchen.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/08\/jamaican-jerk-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.oliviaskitchen.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/08\/jamaican-jerk-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/www.oliviaskitchen.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/08\/jamaican-jerk.jpg 960w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<h3>Ingredients :<\/h3>\n<p>About 6-8 pieces of bone in chicken thighs , with skin on , or you can use whole cut up chicken also .<\/p>\n<p>7 garlic cloves<\/p>\n<p>3 inches of fresh ginger root<\/p>\n<p>3 green onions<\/p>\n<p>2 tbsp. of ground cinnamon<\/p>\n<p>2 tbsp. of ground allspice ( replace this with 1 tbsp. of cloves , and 1 tbsp. of ground cinnamon )<\/p>\n<p>2 tsp. of salt<\/p>\n<p>35 grinds of fresh black pepper<\/p>\n<p>juice of 2 limes and the zest<\/p>\n<p>1 habanero ( i used 2 jalapenos yesterday but i can hardly tasted the heat , so habanero next time )<\/p>\n<p>2 tbsp. of fresh thyme leaves<\/p>\n<p>2 tbsp. of dried oregano<\/p>\n<p>2 tbsp. of canola oil<\/p>\n<p>1.
