Authentic Jamaican Jerk Chicken Wings

I used organic chicken wings from Harris Farm (they were reduced by 30%) and Ja Joint Jamaican Jerk Rub to marinate the wings for 12 hours before baking. Allowing the meat to marinate in the spices helps the flavour develop but is not necessary. The spice mix goes well with fish, roasted vegetables, meatballs, meatloaf and I can imagine it would taste nice in a pasta sauce. If you prefer to cook your wings on a bbq, you can finish them off on a hot bbq grill after baking in an oven at 190C for 30 minutes.

Ingredients

  • 6 chicken wings
  • 2 tablespoons Jamaican Jerk seasoning
  • 1 bunch broccolini
  • 3 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 red long chilli sliced finely

To serve:

  • Fresh coriander leaves
  • Jamaican BBQ sauce optional
  • lime wedges optional

Instructions

  • Place chicken wings in one layer in a ceramic bowl. Sprinkle with the Jerk seasoning and rub well into the skin. If time allows, cover with cling film and refrigerate for 12 hours. Otherwise, set aside while you prepare the broccolini.
  • Pre-heat oven to 190C (170C fan-forced, 375F, gas mark 5).
  • Steam or cook whole broccolini stems for 2-3 minutes over / in a pot of boiling water. Remove from pot and set aside.
  • Rub each wing with a little olive oil and place on a baking tray lined with baking paper. Sprinkle with sliced chilli and bake on the middle shelf of the oven for 30 minutes. Add broccolini to the baking tray then return wings to the oven for a further 15 minutes.

To serve:

  • Sprinkle fresh coriander leaves over the hot wings. Serve with Jamaican BBQ sauce and lime wedges, if you so wish.
