...Since asked for a "hot wings" recipe, far be it from this pangolin not to oblige him...

Though while its certainly not traditional, I can guarantee this is pretty darn spicy!

No Yucca fries though :P

Ingredients

For the Jerk Marinade:

* Optional / extra ingredients added

* 1 cup chopped pineapple (I had a good bit leftover & frozen from the can)
1 onion, finely chopped
1/2 cup finely chopped scallion (used 1 shallot)
2 teaspoons fresh thyme leaves (1 1/2 tsps teaspoon dried)
1 teaspoon salt
2 teaspoons sugar
1 teaspoon ground Jamaican pimento (allspice)
1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 tsp sage*
1/2 tsp ground cloves* (I thought this added a bit more complexity)
1 hot pepper, finely ground (or 2 Scotch bonnet peppers - I went with 3 Scotch Bonnets, chopped but seeded)
1 teaspoon ground black pepper
3 tablespoons soy sauce
1 tablespoon cooking oil
1 tablespoon cider or white vinegar (went with cider)
Chicken legs (original recipe calls for chicken breasts, but you can use any part of the bird for this)
squirt of lemon juice*
squirt of lime juice*
capful of Bacardi lemon rum*

Cucumber Dipping Sauce:

1/2 cucumber
1/2 cup sour cream (I used Mexican crema, which is just a bit more tart, but about the same thing :B)
1/2 cup mayonnaise
2 tsps cider vinegar
1 tsp salt
Pinch cayenne pepper
2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
2 tsps chopped garlic

For the Jerk Marinade:

For the marinade: mix together onion, scallion (or shallot), thyme, salt, sugar, allspice, nutmeg, cinnamon, hot pepper, black pepper, soy sauce, oil and vinegar. These ingredients can also be combined in a food processor.

PLEASE REMEMBER WHEN CHOPPING HABANEROS, USE RUBBER GLOVES. ANY CONTACT FROM THIS PEPPER WITH YOUR OWN SKIN IS -NOT- A GOOD IDEA, AT ALL.

You can let this marinate overnight, but 4 - 6 hours is enough time for the flavors to get in the chicken.

Pun on grill on 350 - 400 F and let cook for 30 - 45 minutes...

As for the sauce, I would recommend it, all you have to do is chop up the cuke finely, mix with the sour cream, mustard, mayo, cider, and etc in a small bowl and let chill while you do your cooking thing, and then serve!

*Whew* It'll put extra hair on your fur for sure :P

Enjoy!
