CUISINE

Caribbean BBQ

HEAT

None

Ingredients

2 lb chicken pieces or wings
2 tbsp BackYard Blendz Original Green Seasoning
1 tbsp oil
Freshly ground black pepper, to taste
1/2 cup barbecue sauce, plus extra for serving if desired

Method

Season the chicken Pat the chicken dry. Coat evenly with BackYard Blendz Original Green Seasoning, oil and black pepper.
Marinate Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes. For a deeper herb flavour, marinate longer.
Cook Grill over medium heat or bake until the chicken is nearly cooked through, turning as needed for even browning.
Glaze Brush with barbecue sauce during the final few minutes of cooking so the sauce caramelises without burning.
Check and rest Cook until the thickest part of the chicken reaches 74°C / 165°F, then rest briefly before serving.

BackYard Blendz Chef Notes

Use about 1 tablespoon of BackYard Blendz per 1 lb of chicken as the starting point. Add a little more for a richer, deeper herb flavour, or use slightly less when you want to stretch the seasoning while still keeping the Caribbean herb character.

Add barbecue sauce near the end of cooking. Sauces with sugar can burn if applied too early over direct heat.

For stronger flavour, season the chicken several hours ahead and keep refrigerated until ready to cook.
