Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 3-pound chicken
3 scotch bonnet or habanero peppers, chopped
4 cloves garlic, chopped
1 tablespoon fresh thyme
1 tablespoon ground allspice
2 onions, chopped
1 tablespoon light brown sugar
½ tablespoon nutmeg
½ tablespoon minced ginger
1 tablespoon olive oil
2 tablespoons lime juice
½ cup white vinegar
salt, to taste
pepper, to taste

Steps:

  • Prepare the chicken by removing the backbone using a pair of kitchen shears or a sharp knife. Transfer the chicken to a baking sheet and and flatten it down to spread the chicken out as much as possible.
  • In a blender or food processor, combine the peppers, garlic, thyme, allspice, onions, brown sugar, nutmeg, ginger, olive oil, lime juice, vinegar, salt, and pepper. Blend until smooth.
  • Pour the marinade over the chicken. Cover with foil or plastic wrap and marinate in the fridge for at least 3 hours or overnight.
  • Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C).
  • Remove the foil or plastic wrap and roast the chicken for 45-50 minutes, until cooked through. Rest for 10 minutes on a cutting board before carving and serving.
  • Enjoy!
