Authentic Jamaican Jerk Chicken

Ingredients:

* 10 boneless skinless chicken thighs 
* 3 tbsp Island Spice Jerk Seasoning Marinade
* 1 tbsp Island Spice All Purpose Seasoning
* 4 chopped green onion stalks (green & white parts)
* 1 tbsp garlic paste (5 peeled, crushed garlic cloves)
* ¼ cup fresh squeezed lime juice

Oil and lime juice mix glaze: 
* 1 tbsp olive oil
* ¼ cup fresh squeezed lime juice

Directions:

In a big bowl, rub chicken pieces with jerk marinade, garlic paste and all purpose seasoning then add remaining ingredients and mix well. Cover bowl and let chicken marinate in the fridge for at least 3 hours to overnight.
Prepare your outdoor grill with a medium-high fire, place marinated chicken on grill and let cook for at least 40 minutes or when juices run clear when pierced with a fork.
Just before chicken is fully cooked using a silicone brush, brush chicken pieces with oil and lime juice mix to keep them moist and juicy.

Serve Jamaican Jerk Chicken with boiled corn, baked sweet potato or grilled vegetables.
