This simple Caribbean-inspired jerk chicken takes about 40 minutes from start to finish. Serve with grilled vegetables like zucchini and eggplant. If not everyone at the barbecue likes spicy food, you can make the marinade without the scotch bonnet pepper and pour it over the chicken. Reserve some of the marinade and blend in the scotch bonnet to make a spicy sauce people can add if they want.

Place the chicken in a non-reactive dish (glass or ceramic). Put all other ingredients in a food processor or good blender and puree.
