Jerk Chicken

[RIPT]

Looking for a recipie either all natural or a good bottled sauce that doesn't have a lot of preservatives etc. in it mon!I've already got the rice and beans figured out together they make a complete protein as well as providing carbs, the ultimate sidedish!!

If you take the timeto make the sauce yourself, it's better. This is a simple recipe I've used:

1 tablespoon Ground allspice
1 tablespoon Dried thyme
1 1/2 teaspoons Freshly ground black pepper
1 1/2 teaspoons Ground sage
2 tablespoons Garlic powder or fresh
1 tablespoon Sugar
1/4 cup Olive oil
3/4 cup White Vinegar
1/4 cup Orange juice
2 Limes worth of juice
1 large chopped habenero or jalepeno
3 Green onions -- finely chopped
1 cup Onion -- finely chopped

Toss in a food processor and blend until you get a paste. It's good, and makes enough for a couple pounds of chicken breasts. You can change it up to taste.
