Jerk Chicken

Ingredients

• 1 (4 to 5-pound) whole chicken, cut in quarters (skin on)
• 1 lime, halved
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1 tablespoon oil
• 2 tablespoons jerk seasoning or 3 tablespoons jerk marinade
• 1 tablespoon dark rum or 2 tablespoons regular rum, optional

Directions

Rub the chicken quarters with lime, rinse, and pat dry. Sprinkle with salt.

In a suitable bowl, mix the rest of the ingredients and add the chicken. Rub mixture in thoroughly and allow to marinate in the refrigerator for at least 4 hours, preferably overnight.

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F or light the barbecue.

Grill or roast the chicken slowly until very tender, for about 40 minutes.
