• Prep Time:
  10 min
• Ready Time:
  10 min

Ingredients

• 1 onion, chopped
• 1/2 cup chopped green onions
• 1/2 teaspoons dried thyme
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 2 teaspoons sugar
• 1 teaspoon ground allspice
• 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
• 1/2 teaspoon nutmeg
• 1 teaspoon black pepper
• 1 habanero or Scotch bonnet (very hot), or jalapeno (not so hot)
• 2 tablespoons soy sauce
• 1 tablespoon cider vinegar
• 1 tablespoon vegetable oil or a little more if sauce is to thick
• 3 cloves garlic chopped

Directions

This is very simple, combine all the ingredients into a food processor and blend until a smooth paste. You will want this  to marinade on your chicken for at least three days. Now I know this seems like a long time but make sure it’s completely covering your chicken in a plastic bag and turn a few times a day while in the  fridge.

When ready to cook it bring it to room temp about 30 min or so sitting out.  Cook it on a hot grill turning often, if using thicker pieces of chicken once you have cooked the outside finish it in a 375 degree oven for 15-20 min.  Serve with some fruit slaw and lots of hot sauce.
