Jerk chicken wings

How to make Jerk chicken wings recipe

Serves 4

Preparation time 5 minutes, plus marinating, Cooking time 12 minutes

Ingredients:
12 large chicken wings
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 tablespoon jerk seasoning mix
juice of ½ lemon
1 teaspoon salt
chopped parsley, to garnish
lemon wedges, to serve

Method:
Put the chicken wings in a non-metallic dish. Whisk together the oil, jerk seasoning mix, lemon juice and salt in a small bowl, pour over the wings and stir well until evenly coated. Cover and leave to marinate in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes or overnight.

Arrange the chicken wings on a grill rack and cook under a preheated grill, basting halfway through cooking with any remaining marinade, for 6 minutes on each side or until cooked through, tender and lightly charred at the edges. Increase or reduce the temperature setting of the grill, if necessary, to make sure that the wings cook through.

Sprinkle with the chopped parsley and serve immediately with lemon wedges for squeezing over.

For jerk lamb kebabs, coat 750 g (1½ lb) boneless lamb, cut into bite-sized pieces, in the jerk marinade as above, leaving to marinate overnight if time allows.

Thread the meat on to 8 skewers and cook under a preheated grill or over a barbecue for 6–8 minutes on each side or until cooked to your liking.
