ingredients

For the Chicken:
  • 9 drumsticks or desired chicken cuts, trimmed, rinsed, and dried well
  • 2 Tablespoons mayonnaise
  • 1/4 cup Casa M Spice Co® Jerked Chain® or Uncontrolled Jerked Chain®
Pulling It All Together:
  • 2 Tablespoons butter
  • 1/4 cup red onion
  • 12 oz can pineapple in syrup
  • 2 Tablespoons apple cider vinegar
  • 2 Tablespoons Casa M Spice Co® Jerked Chain® or Uncontrolled Jerked Chain®

LET’S GET COOKING

  • 1.

    Preheat oven to 375°F and place the chicken into a large mixing bowl.

  • 2.

    In a blender combine the canned pineapple with syrup and 2 Tablespoons Casa M Spice Co® Jerked Chain® and puree.

  • 3.

    In a small mixing bowl, combine the 1/4 cup Casa M Spice Co® Jerked Chain® and mayonnaise and mix well until it's thoroughly combined and homogenous.

  • 4.

    Add the Jerked Chain® mayonnaise mixture to the bowl with the chicken and mix very well. Place onto a baking dish and bake for 30 minutes.

  • 5.

    While the chicken is cooking, make the glaze.

  • 6.

    In a saucepan, over medium high heat, melt the butter and sauté red onion until softened, about 4 minutes. Use the apple cider vinegar to deglaze the pan and add the pineapple/Jerked Chain® mixture from the blender and mix well.

  • 7.

    Simmer until reduced into a glaze. About 10 minutes or so. Remember, stove temperatures can vary.

  • 8.

    When the chicken has cooked for 30 minutes, remove the baking dish and baste the chicken on all sides with the glaze and return to the oven to cook an additional 15 minutes, but bump the temperature up to 425°F. Since all ovens cook slightly differently, adjust temperatures and times to get an internal temperature of 160°F prior to resting. For color, if the temperature internally is there, you can add a couple minutes of broiling to get the caramelization of the glaze.
