Succulent chicken thighs covered with jerk paste and simply roasted in the oven - perfect served with Caribbean rice & peas. Hot, succulent Jamaican Jerk Chicken is a tropical treat. You'll love the heat and flavor of this fiery marinade.
Steps to make Jerk Chicken & Pineapple Kebabs:
- Add all of the marinade ingredients to a food processor/blender and make into a paste. Add along with the chicken pieces in a bowl and using a spoon combine together to coat completely. Marinade in the fridge for at least half an hour.
- When ready to cook, take the marinated chicken pieces and assemble the kebabs by alternating the chicken with the pineapple chunks. Heat up your grill or ready the BBQ. (I used a George Foreman grill).
- Drizzle the kebabs in a little oil if not BBQing then place on the hot grill. Grill until the chicken is cooked right through and the pineapple is nicely charred.
- Serve up and enjoy! Perfect with my Fireslaw (see previous recipe), or with rice and peas.
This jerk chicken recipe is from Paul Chung, who grew up in Jamaica and sampled jerk throughout the island. It's fragrant, fiery hot and smoky all at once. Jerk chicken is synonymously tied to Jamaican cuisine, just as the hamburger is tied to American cuisine. It is probably the most recognized dish that has come out of Jamaica. It is by far the most requested dish by tourists when they visit Jamaica.
