  • equal parts of fresh lime juice, soy sauce (about 3/4 cup each for 3 lbs. of wings; 1 cup each for 4 lbs.)
  • 1/2 cup of dark spiced rum , increase if making larger portion
  • fresh minced garlic and grated fresh ginger, aim for twice the amount of garlic to ginger ratio, i.e. 3 tbsp of garlic and 1 1/2 tbsp of ginger is recommended for 3 lbs. of meat
  • 1 tsp of dried thyme
  • 1/2 tsp of allspice
  • 1/2 tsp of cayenne pepper
  • 1/8 cup of pickapeppa sauce
  • 4 cups of vegetable oil ( peanut for deep frying)
  • 3 cups of seasoned flour (2 tsp of adobo seasoning and 1 tsp of cayenne pepper to every 3 cups of flour)

Directions:

  1. Day one:
  2. Mix the lime juice, soy sauce, rum, garlic, ginger, pickapeppa sauce and spices in large measuring cup.
  3. Joint the wings, save the tips, divide the remaining pieces between two extra heavy duty plastic zip closing gallon bags.
  4. Divide the marinade between the two bag of chicken pieces.
  5. Seal close and mush around.
  6. Set in a deep pan just in case they leak and marinate for 24 hours.
