This recipe uses two whole chickens cut into pieces - but you’re free to use any cut of chicken you like.

Cooking InstructionsHide images

step 1

Add the Canned Diced Pineapple (3 1/3 cups), Orange Juice (4 Tbsp), Jerk Seasoning (3 Tbsp), Garlic (4 cloves), Dark Soy Sauce (2 Tbsp), Scallion (1 bunch), Fresh Thyme (6 sprigs), Scotch Bonnet Pepper (1/2), Brown Sugar (1 Tbsp), Olive Oil (1 Tbsp), and Freshly Ground Black Pepper (as needed) into a large bowl and mix well. Try to bruise the thyme so it can release its flavor oils.

step 2

Pour the marinade over the Bone-in, Skin-on Chicken Thighs and Drumsticks (8). Leve the skin on to protect the chicken from drying out in the oven. Allow this to marinate for at least 2 hours.

step 3

Preheat your oven to 410 degrees F (210 degrees C).

step 4

Place directly into a preheated oven on the middle rack. Roast uncovered on the middle rack 1 hour and 15 minutes and you’re left with an amazing pineapple jerk chicken to enjoy. Be sure to line your roasting pan with foil so clean-up is easy.
