It’s always going to be these Baked Jamaican Jerk Chicken Wings for me. 🤌🏾🔥

FOLLOW FOR MORE FOOD + FAITH‼️

YOUR GROCERY LIST:

🇯🇲Chicken wings. I like to use organic wings that are disjointed (comes in two pieces) for a better cook. You can also use whole pieces of chicken (i.e. drumsticks, thighs, etc.) if preferred.
🇯🇲Jerk seasoning. I like two layers of seasoning for this dish. You can purchase a store-bought version or create a homemade blend using: onion powder, garlic powder, cayenne pepper, black pepper, dried thyme, brown sugar, ground allspice, dried parsley, smoked paprika, red pepper flakes, cinnamon, nutmeg, cloves, and cumin.
🇯🇲Thyme. I recommend fresh, but if you only have dried, use a half teaspoon.
🇯🇲Scotch bonnet. If you don’t like spice, use less of the peppers. You can also sub with habanero peppers.
🇯🇲BBQ sauce. Make your own or use a premium store-bought sauce.
🇯🇲Unsalted butter. This adds additional flavor to the sauce. For a dairy-free option, feel free to use vegan butter.
🇯🇲Chicken stock. I like to use organic chicken stock, you can also use veggie stock if preferred.
🇯🇲Jerk seasoning paste. I love using a store-bought paste from Grace foods, however, you can always make your own homemade seasoning.
🇯🇲Cornstarch. Used for the thickening of BBQ jerk sauce. You can sub with arrowroot starch, flour, tapioca flour, etc.

Indulging in all the berries this month and this Skillet Blueberry Cobbler with Cinnamon Biscuit is the PERFECT way to start. 🤌🏾😍

FOLLOW FOR MORE FOOD + FAITH‼️

YOUR GROCERY LIST:

🫐Blueberries. You can use fresh or frozen blueberries, which means this is a year-round recipe! If you use frozen fruit, toss the blueberries in a tablespoon of flour before adding them to the recipe. This helps absorb some of the excess moisture on the frozen fruit. Love or
🫐Brown sugar. Ensure that it’s organic for healthiest option.
🫐Cane sugar. I use organic sugar. Feel free to substitute with organic brown sugar or coconut sugar. Love
🫐Cinnamon and nutmeg. For more warming flavors and it amplifies the bluebeery notes in this recipe! Always
🫐Vanilla extract. The pure vanilla is the best flavor. Fave:
🫐Unsalted butter. I like to bake with unsalted butter, however, you can substitute with salted butter and omit the additional salt.
🫐Lemon juice + zest. I love to use freshly-squeezed lemon juice and zest for a hint of lemony flavor. This adds acidity to the cobbler which adds great structure and texture as well as a nice tartness that compliments the blueberries.
🫐All-purpose flour. I love or King Arthur’s organic flour, which is certified vegan.
🫐Baking powder. This is essential to help your cobbler topping rise.
🫐Buttermilk. You can use store-bought buttermilk or make your own by mixing Almond milk or heavy cream + lemon juice together. The milk should be COLD.
