5 Pds. Chicken Wings whole, thawed
Jerk Seasoning Dry as needed

Marinating Preparation:
1. Add the jerk marinade, garlic, thyme, allspice, water, and
scallions in a large bowl and mix well using a whip to evenly combine
the ingredients.
2. Add the chicken wings to the marinade, cover with plastic wrap
and place in the refrigerator on the bottom shelf.
Tips
3. Make sure the chicken wings are fully thawed this helps the
chicken to fully absorb the marinade.
4. Marinate the chicken wings for 18 to 24 hours before cooking.
The longer the marinating time, the more flavorful the wings will
become.

Cooking Preparation:
1. After marinating is complete, remove the wings from the marinade
and place in a clean bowl.
2. Lightly season the wings with the dry jerk seasoning and lay on a
sheet pan with the wing tips face down.
3. Bake the wings at 350ºF for 20 – 25 minutes or until fully
cooked.
4. Remove from the oven and place in the refrigerator to chill to
40ºF.

Tips:
• Make sure the wings are drained well after being removed from the
marinade or the seasoning will not fully adhere to the wings.
• The wings are cooked with the wing tips face down, to allow more
even cooking and removal of excess fat from the chicken skin.
• By pre-cooking the wings this prevents flare-ups on the grill
during the final grilling procedure

Grilling Preparation:
1. Heat your gas or charcoal grill to medium heat.
2. Place the chilled wings on the grill and grill for 2 1/2 – 3
minutes on each side. The skin of the wings should develop a crisp
texture and a mahogany like color. Make sure the wings are fully
heated to 165ºF.
3. Serve hot with your favorite beverage. Enjoy!!!

Tips:
• Wings can also be placed on the grill directly from the oven to
express the cooking process.
• Allspice or pimento leaves can be placed on the grill during the
grilling process to give the wings a light smoked flavor.
