Ingredients
-
1 Tbsp. Sweet Heat Spice Blend
-
½ tsp. Cayenne Pepper Powder
-
6½ Tbsp. (2 oz.) Jamaican Jerk Spice Blend
- ¾ cup packed dark brown sugar, divided
- 5 garlic cloves
- 4-inch piece fresh ginger, peeled & chopped
- ¼ cup soy sauce, divided
- 4 lbs chicken wings and/or drumettes
- 1/3 cup tomato paste
- 1 lime, juiced
Directions
- COMBINE ¼ cup brown sugar, garlic, ginger, 1 Tbsp. soy sauce, Sweet Heat Spice Blend, and Cayenne Pepper Powder into a food processor and process until finely ground. Transfer to slow cooker.
- ADD chicken and toss to combine. Cover and cook on low until fat is rendered and chicken is tender, 3½ -4½ hrs. Transfer the chicken only to a bowl and discard remaining liquid.
- TURN on oven broiler with rack placed on middle position. Line a rimmed baking sheet with aluminum foil and spray with non-stick cooking spray.
- WHISK together Jamaican Jerk Spice Blend, tomato paste, 2 Tbsp. water, lime juice, remaining brown sugar, and remaining soy sauce in a bowl.
- COMBINE half the sauce with the now slightly cooled chicken and toss to coat. Arrange wings, skin-side-up on baking sheet. Broil until wings are slightly charred and are crisp around the edges, 12-15 mins.
- FLIP chicken and brush with remaining sauce. Broil once again until done, 3-4 mins.
