- 3
Cover the chicken with the lemon/lime or 1/4 cup vinegar.

Rinse chicken with cold water to remove lime and drain well.

Pierce the chicken with a pairing knife or fork. I also put my fingers between the skin and meat to allow the best absorption of the marinade.

Oven-Roasted Tandoori-Inspired Jerk Chicken Oven-Roasted Tandoori-Inspired Jerk Chicken
I like using yogurt in chicken marinades. With the right proportions and marinating periods, it subtly tenderizes meat and enhances its natural flavor, texture and juiciness without imparting any yogurt flavor.The acid and cultures also help marinade penetrate more quickly and effectively, seasoning the flesh to the bone without creating that brined-like cured texture that often occurs when meat is left to sit in a salty solution for a long time.It's similar to the result you get with buttermilk, but more efficient because the lower liquid content reduces the amount of seasoning needed and also lessens the amount of liquid uptake into the protein that can, counterintuitively, cause an internal steaming effect during cooking that can actually ultimately result in a drier and/or spongier texture to the meat.You can grill this chicken low and slow as you would any other Jerk Chicken preparation, but sometimes the oven is just easier, so I added some liquid smoke to the marinade and did a high heat roast (450F) instead. Not tandoor-level heat by any stretch - they can get up to about 900F if I recall correctly - but it produces a pretty tasty and consistent result.My recipe is adapted from a Saveur Jerk Chicken recipe, but you can modify your favorite Jerk recipe by adding 1/2 a cup of yogurt, 1 tsp of kosher salt, and 1 tsp of sugar.Cook time: 15 mins prep, 6 to 24 hrs to marinate, 60 mins to cook

I got some “Jerk Seasoning” a while back that has been fossilizing in the cabinet. I figured now is as good a time as any to use it. Jerk seasoning is a mixture of seasonings. You can make it yourself. A quick internet search will disclose the ingredients or you can use some fossilized prepared seasonings.
