    I've never made Jerk Chicken before, so decided to try this and all I can say is WOW! My DH and a friend of ours loved it! I only used 1/2 cup of the cider vinegar as that is all I had but I followed the recipe exactly other than I marinated it for 7 hours instead of overnigh. Thanks I'll be making this again!

    Saucy Jerk Chicken, This recipe came to me by way of the February 2005 Zaar recipe adoption Don’t let the amount of vinegar concern you The finished product does not have a sour taste at all, and I was quite pleased with the recipe The only changes I made were to reduce the amount of salt and increase the amount of chicken, as the marinade makes a substantial amount If you choose to halve the recipe, I would recommend using the full amount of the marinade ingredients to keep the flavor in balance Note: edited 3/19/07 to add freezing instructions for OMAC , I’ve never made Jerk Chicken before, so decided to try this and all I can say is WOW! My DH and a friend of ours loved it! I only used 1/2 cup of the cider vinegar as that is all I had but I followed the recipe exactly other than I marinated it for 7 hours instead of overnigh Thanks I’ll be making this again!, I haven’t had jerk chicken in Jamaica like some reviewers, so I’m giving the benefit of the doubt with 4 stars instead of 3 Now, don’t get me wrong- this makes for a tasty chicken and I enjoyed it But in all honesty, this tastes like it was marinated in salad dressing Is this what Jerk chicken is supposed to taste like? There’s no great spice kick like I was expecting Definitely no heat (Yes, I followed the recipe exactly, for once in my life) I should have read a few other recipes first They include things like ginger, fresh garlic, and scotch bonnet peppers That seems way more authentic to me- or perhaps jerk chicken is just, by nature, boring
