Juicy Caribbean Jerked Chicken

[eglean2 24]

In response to the weekly challange, here is a new recipe we tried this weeked.

1/2 cup sliced scallions

1 TB grated ginger

2 TB cilantro

2 TSP hot pepper sauce

juice of 1 lime

1 1/2 TSP jerk seasoning

1/2 cinnamon

1 TB extra-virgin olive oil

3 jalapeno peppers seeded and chopped

1 TSP black peper

1/2 TSP Kosher salt

1/2 TSP red pepper flakes

2 cloves garlic

2 TB brown sugar substitute

1 TB apple cider vinegar

1 TB orange juice

2 TSP worcestershire sauce

4 4-ounce chicken breast

4 4-ounce chicken thighs (no bones, no skin)

Combine all the ingrediants (except the chicken) in a food processor and blend until almost smooth. Coat the chicken and place into slow cooker to marinate overnight for 12 hours. Cook on low for 5 or 6 hours. For more heat, leave in the seeds but i thought it was "warm" without them.

Be sure not to overcook (I did) The chicken was a little dry but still very tasty! I used some fresh herbs and some dried.

My family and I have been trying about 1 new recipe a week and so far I haven't made 1 they didn't like!

BTW, this is a regular texture food.< /p>
