Rummy Grilled Chicken Caribe Recipes

JAMAICAN RUM CHICKEN

Steps:

• Combine all ingredients in small bowl. Place chicken in food storage bag. Pour marinade over chicken. Refrigerate 4 hours or overnight, turning bag once or twice.
• Spray grill with cooking spray. Grill chicken until no longer pink.

GRILLED CARIBBEAN CHICKEN BREASTS

Steps:

• In a blender, combine the orange juice, orange peel, olive oil, lime juice, ginger, garlic, hot pepper sauce and oregano. Blend into a marinade.
• Place chicken breasts in a nonporous glass dish or bowl. Pour marinade over chicken, cover dish or bowl and refrigerate to marinate for at least 2 hours, or up to 24 hours.
• Preheat oven to broil OR preheat grill to medium high heat and lightly oil grate.
• Remove chicken from marinade (disposing of any leftover marinade) and grill or broil 6 inches from the heat source for about 7 minutes per side, or until chicken is cooked through and no longer pink inside.

GRILLED CHICKEN WITH CARIBBEAN MARINADE

Steps:

• In a food processor, puree the scallions, garlic, allspice, thyme, salt, brown sugar, jalapeño, oil, and lime juice until smooth, scraping down the sides halfway. Place the chicken in a gallon-sized plastic bag.
• Pour the mixture over the chicken and seal the bag, pressing as much air out as you can. Turn the bag a few times to move the marinade around, coating the chicken.
• Refrigerate for at least 1 hour or up to 24 hours, flipping the bag halfway through to make sure the chicken marinates evenly.
• Preheat your gas grill with all burners on high and close the lid. When the grill is hot (after about 15 minutes), turn the 2 burners closest to the front to low, keeping the back burner on high.
• Remove the chicken from the bag and arrange on the grates over the low heat burners. Cover and cook until the underside of the chicken is just beginning to develop light grill marks, 6 to 9 minutes. Flip the chicken, cover, and continue to cook until the chicken is firm to touch, 6 to 9 minutes longer.
• To get a nice char on the chicken, now move the chicken to the part of the grill over high flames and cook uncovered until each side has solid grill marks, 5 to 6 minutes, flipping halfway.
• The chicken should be completely firm to the touch and register 160 degrees F on an instant-read thermometer. Transfer the chicken to a plate, tent with foil, and let it rest for 5 minutes before serving.

RUM CHICKEN MARINADE

Steps:

• Whisk lime juice, dark rum, olive oil, soy sauce, garlic, cinnamon, ginger, and hot sauce together in a bowl.

GRILLED CARIBBEAN JERK CHICKEN W/ PINEAPPLE REDUCTION

Steps:

• Heat grill and spray with nonstick spray.
• Rub jerk seasoning into chicken.
• Grill chicken 8-12 minutes, or until cooked through.
• In a saucepan, pour juice from canned pineapple, rum and vinegar.
• Chop one slice of pineapple into very small pieces and add to the saucepan.
• Zest the lime into the pan.
• Simmer over medium - low heat until the liquid reduces by half.
• Add cilantro, butter, cayenne and salt and pepper to taste.
• simmer for a few minutes on low.
• place sliced pineapple on hot grill and cook 2-3 minutes per side--just enough to leave grill marks.
• serve chicken with pineapple on top and sauce poured over.
• Squeeze the juice of the lime over the dish.
• I like to serve it with a fresh summer salad--the sauce makes a nice dressing when cooled.
