🍗🔥 Baked Jamaican Jerk Chicken Wings

Bold Caribbean flavor with a crispy oven-baked finish—these jerk wings are packed with heat, herbs, and that signature island taste!

🛒 Ingredients

* 2–3 lbs chicken wings
* 2 tbsp olive oil
* Juice of 1 lime
* 2 tbsp soy sauce
* 1 tbsp brown sugar
* 1–2 tbsp jerk seasoning (or paste)
* 1 tsp paprika
* 1 tsp dried thyme
* ½ tsp allspice
* ½ tsp black pepper
* 3–4 cloves garlic, minced
* 1 Scotch bonnet pepper (optional, for heat)

👩‍🍳 Directions:

1. Pat the chicken wings dry and place them in a large bowl. This helps the marinade stick and improves crispiness.

2. In a separate bowl, mix olive oil, lime juice, soy sauce, brown sugar, jerk seasoning, paprika, thyme, allspice, black pepper, garlic, and Scotch bonnet.

3. Pour the marinade over the wings and toss until fully coated. Cover and refrigerate for at least **4 hours (overnight for best flavor)**.

4. Preheat oven to **400°F (200°C)** and line a baking sheet (use a rack if possible for crispier wings).

5. Arrange wings in a single layer, letting excess marinade drip off.

6. Bake for **40–50 minutes**, flipping halfway through, until wings are golden, crispy, and fully cooked (internal temp 165°F).

7. Optional: broil for **2–3 minutes** at the end for extra char and caramelization.

8. Let rest briefly, then serve hot with lime wedges or your favorite sides.

🔥 Pro Tip: The longer you marinate, the deeper the flavor—jerk wings are all about letting those spices soak into the meat.
