With just the right herbs and spices, it's a finger licking meal that leaves you wanting more.
Instructions to make Jamaican Curry Chicken:
- Add Onion, Green Onions, Ginger, Garlic, 1 Scotch Bonnet Pepper, Thyme, Cilantro, & 1/2 of the Salt to a Food Processor. Pulse Until Well Combined.
- Pour Marinade in a Freezer Bag with the Cut Up Chicken Thighs. Seal and Refrigerate for 1 - 2 Hours. (Overnight is Best)
