Ainsley's Jerk Chicken - Ainsley's Barbecue Bible - BBC Food

now back to my ingredients there's again the two scotch bonnet peppers one whole onion chopped a two inch piece of ginger there just peeled off the skin and then chop that up i've got one teaspoon of allspice now don't get that confused with mixed spikes they're two totally different things and a good sprig of fresh thyme just take that i'm just going to pop that into the blender that avoids all that contact with the fingers and everything ever so simple if you've got one of these and as for the time you just want to sort of push that off with your knife sometimes it kind of when it dries out it sort of binds onto the little stalks there so just use your sharp knife there and scrape that down that's it just pick that up and put that inside and the other ingredients are 50 ml of a dark soy sauce and 50 ml of thyme vinegar very simple to do sprigs of thyme in a bottle pour your wine vinegar on top and just let it all infuse together then we just blitz that together the idea of the soy sauce and the vinegar is not only that it sort of moistens all your other ingredients but it tenderizes the meat that's the most important thing that's beautiful and then we take that and just pour that on top of our chicken you pick up your palette knife and then work that into me give your meat a good old rub that's it nice and hot hot spicy meat here boy that's it and turn it over don't be trying to turn that over and really get into those cuts you know those cups that you made in chicken work that marinade right down to the bone that's it remember you want to do this for about 24 hours marinated maybe even 48 hours but no longer than that otherwise it starts to break down the meat and you lose all that kind of juiciness tenderness that you get with your meat and once you've marinated your chicken for long enough you pop them on top of your barbecue look at those coals you can see that lovely sort of white sort of dust there that's collected around that coals that's the indication that it's ready to cook to get to that stage once you've lit your barbecue it's probably going to take anywhere up sort of 14 40 minutes maybe even an hour until they kind of die down like that and that will avoid it sort of burning you know you don't want to burn your meat or fish your chicken breasts they're going to take about 25 to 30 minutes to cook and the wings 15 to 20 minutes that's lovely chat [Music]
