Jamaican Jerk Chicken
A taste of the islands is not far away with this authentic jerk chicken recipe. Traditionally made with sugar, this jerk marinade is keto friendly and can be made in advance or doubled for multiple uses. While most jerk chicken is made over an open flame, the addition of some liquid smoke does that work for you while the chicken roasts in the oven.
Ingredients
1 onion, finely chopped
½ cup finely chopped scallions
3 tablespoons soy sauce
1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
1 tablespoon olive oil
2 teaspoons chopped fresh thyme
2 teaspoons sugar substitute
1 teaspoon liquid smoke
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon allspice
1 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
½ teaspoon nutmeg
½ teaspoon cinnamon
1 whole chicken, quartered
