For the Chicken Wings:
3 pounds chicken wings, tips removed and wings cut into drumettes and flats
Salt, to taste
Pepper, to taste
For the Jerk Sauce (Optional):
1 cup ketchup
2 tablespoons honey or brown sugar
1 tablespoon soy sauce
Leftover jerk marinade
Instructions:
1. Prepare the Jerk Marinade:
In a blender or food processor, combine the green onions, Scotch bonnet peppers, thyme, allspice, cinnamon, nutmeg, brown sugar, garlic, ginger, salt, pepper, soy sauce, vegetable oil, apple cider vinegar, and lime juice. Blend until smooth.
Taste the marinade and adjust the seasoning or heat level as desired.
2. Marinate the Chicken Wings:
Place the chicken wings in a large bowl or resealable plastic bag. Season them lightly with salt and pepper.
Pour most of the jerk marinade over the chicken wings, reserving about 1/4 cup for the sauce if you plan to make it. Ensure all the wings are well-coated with the marinade.
Marinate in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours, or overnight for the best flavor.
