Jerk Butterflied Chicken

Ingredients

- 1 butterflied chicken
- 1 tsp whole allspice berries
- 2 tsp fresh thyme leaves
- 1 tsp black peppercorns
- 2 tbsp honey
- 3 tbsp soy sauce
- 2 scotch bonnet chillies (or habaneros)
- 5 garlic cloves
- 3cm x 3cm piece ginger, peeled and sliced
- 2 spring onions, white part only
- 1 small brown onion, diced
- 2 tbsp vegetable oil
- 1 tsp salt
- 3 limes

Method

1. To a blender, add the scotch bonnets, allspice berries, onion, spring onions, ginger, garlic, thyme, honey, soy sauce, salt, pepper, and juice of 1 lime. Blend well and rub all over the chicken. Leave in the fridge to marinate for 1-4 hours.
2. Grill your chicken, flipping every 7-8 minutes and brushing on any leftover marinade during the cooking.
3. Cook until the thickest part reaches 66°C (150°F). Remove from the grill and rest for 5-10 minutes before carving.
4. Garnish with more lime wedges and enjoy!

“Could be hotter” immediately cuts to 2 scotch bonnets

I like how you use a real whole chicken and not pieces! Well done!

[saucdlownslow]

Love the grinding of the pimento, it'd an underrated spice but it's amazing, we grind 10s of kilos in our spice production and the room smells amazing.

🇯🇲 thanks Andy! ☺️ I’ve been patiently waiting to see a Jamaican dish

[freemusic]

Big up Andy as a Jamaican boy I love the authenticity 👏👏👏

[foodogslove]

Oh yes…that looks absolutely delicious. In Jamaica they cook it over wood to give a really smoky intense flavour too. This brings back family holidays and my Jamaican father would definitely approve!
Thanks Andy… another great dish! ❤️

One of my favorite ever cooking show people. I love how there's nothing in the way of the cooking. You can watch this 5x and actually feel like you remember all the important steps

I've had a lot of chicken in my time but never had a Jerk.

Good that you showed him what's what

[hrafna]

When the spices smell so good, you're just like 🤤*

I’m so jealous of Andy’s outdoor kitchen.

[kennysmith]

Brudda Man, Handy Andy you killed it with that chicken!

[mannyg]

I tried this today for the first time but on chicken thighs. Cooked it in the oven for an hour at 400 degrees F ( I turned it over after 30 mins).

I’m still in heaven.

I just finished lunch, and I'm hungry again. Looks amazing!

[davidnymann]

Scotch bonnet peppers are 10/10 delicious
