GRILLED JERK-SPICED CHICKEN WINGS WITH MANGO SAUCE
At one of the highest levels of heat comes one of Jamaica's most famous exports. Not reggae, not rum...JERK CHICKEN. We can handle the heat, but we're not here to show off how much pain we can tolerate. Looking to hit a delicate balance between heat and flavor, we made a fiery jerk-inspired spice rub for chicken wings and added a sweet and spicy mango-cilantro sauce to temper the heat.

Steps:
- Prepare a grill for high indirect heat (for a charcoal grill, bank coals on one side of grill; for a gas grill, leave one or two burners off).
- For the wings: Add the paprika, cayenne, allspice, nutmeg, garlic powder, cloves, ginger, minced garlic, thyme, salt and pepper to a small bowl and stir to combine. Reserve 1 tablespoon of the spice mixture for the mango sauce.
- Put the chicken wings in a large bowl with the remaining spice mixture. Toss to evenly coat. Reserve the wings while you make the sauce.
- For the mango-cilantro sauce: Put the orange juice, mango jam, 1 tablespoon reserved spice mixture, honey, cilantro, orange zest, scallions and Scotch bonnet in a blender. Blend until smooth. Pour into a bowl and reserve at room temperature while you grill the wings.
- Place the chicken wings on the grill over the indirect heat zone. Cover and grill for 5 minutes. Flip the wings and continue to cook for an additional 5 minutes. Move the wings directly over the heat and cook until nicely charred and cooked through, about 5 minutes.
- Remove the wings from the grill and toss with the reserved sauce. Pile onto a platter and garnish with chopped cilantro.

Steps:
- Combine the scallions, oil, soy sauce, ginger, brown sugar, thyme leaves, allspice, cinnamon, garlic, Scotch bonnet peppers, lime zest and juice and 1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper in a food processor. Pulse until smooth. Reserve 1/2 cup marinade for basting later. Put the chicken wings and remaining marinade in a large resealable plastic bag. Rub the thyme sprigs between your hands and add to the bag. Seal the bag and massage to distribute the marinade evenly. Refrigerate for at least 4 hours or up to overnight. Remove to room temperature 30 minutes before grilling.
- Preheat a grill for indirect and direct grilling over medium heat. For gas grills (with 3 or more burners), turn all the burners to medium-high heat; after about 15 minutes turn off one of the middle burners and turn the remaining burners down to medium. For charcoal grills, bank one chimney starter-full of lit and ashed-over charcoal briquettes to one side of the grill. Set up a drip pan on the other side to avoid flare-ups. (Be sure to consult the grill manufacturer's guide for best results.)
- Lightly oil the grill grates. Remove the wings from the bag and season all over with salt. Add the wings to the indirect-heat side. Cover and cook, flipping halfway through, about 20 minutes (the wings will be almost completely cooked at this point). Uncover the grill and baste the wings with some of the reserved marinade. Flip the wings onto the hot side of the grill to crisp up and cook, about 3 minutes, then baste, flip and cook until the wings are cooked all the way through, about 4 minutes more.
- Sprinkle with sliced scallions and serve with lime wedges.

Spicy, citrus, earthy, with the right amount of thyme. These wings should be a hit as long as your guests are brave enough to take some Caribbean heat. I like to serve this with a mango, cilantro, sour cream, mayonnaise, and buttermilk dipping sauce.

Steps:
- Mix together the orange juice, lemon juice, lime juice, salt, black pepper, thyme, garlic, ginger, habanero pepper, curry powder, allspice, nutmeg, and cinnamon in a bowl. Whisk in the vegetable oil. Pour 3/4 of the marinade into a resealable plastic zipper bag, and place the chicken wing pieces into the bag. Squeeze out any air, and mix the wing pieces with the marinade, and refrigerate from 4 to 12 hours. Place the remaining 1/4 of the marinade in a small bowl, and refrigerate until grilling time.
- Preheat an outdoor grill for medium heat, and lightly oil the grate.
- Remove the wing pieces from the bag of marinade, and discard the used marinade. Sprinkle the wings with salt and pepper to taste, and sear on the hottest part of the grill until the wings begin to brown, about 4 minutes per side.
- Move the wings to a less-hot part of the grill, baste with the unused portion of the marinade, and close the grill. Grill until the wings are golden brown, show good grill marks, are no longer pink in the center, and the juices run clear, 10 to 15 more minutes. Baste again with marinade and turn after 5 to 8 minutes.

- Prepare grill for cooking: If using charcoal grill, open vents on bottom, then light charcoal. Charcoal fire is medium-hot when you can hold your hand 5 inches above rack for 4 to 5 seconds. If using gas grill, preheat burners on high with hood closed 10 minutes, then turn down to moderately high.
