Bahama Breeze Jamaican Grilled Chicken Wings are a delicious and flavorful dish that will transport you straight to the sunny Caribbean. Jerk seasoning is a popular spice blend throughout the Caribbean, with allspice as a key ingredient. The seasoning, combined with a Caribbean jerk marinade, gives these chicken wings a perfect balance of sweet and spicy flavors. Grilling the wings to perfection leaves them juicy and succulent, making them a finger-licking treat for any barbecue or party.

Instructions

1.	In a blender, combine the Caribbean jerk marinade, garlic, thyme, allspice, water, and scallions, and blend until smooth.
2.	Rinse the chicken wings and pat dry with paper towels.
3.	Place the wings in a large bowl and pour the marinade over them, tossing to coat.
4.	Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and marinate in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour.
5.	Preheat the grill to medium-high heat.
6.	Remove the chicken wings from the marinade, reserving any excess marinade.
7.	Season the wings with Jamaican jerk spice.
8.	Grill the wings for 15-20 minutes, flipping occasionally and basting with the reserved marinade, until the chicken is cooked through and the skin is slightly charred.
9.	Serve hot and enjoy!

HEALTH & BENEFITS

While chicken provides a good source of protein, these wings are high in fat and calories due to the marinade.
However, the jerk seasoning used in this recipe contains allspice, which has antioxidant properties and can help with digestion and inflammation.
Using chicken wings with the skin removed can also help reduce fat and calorie content.
