How to Make Jerk Chicken Family Style
- Combine all rub ingredients (except chicken) in a food processor or blender until smooth.
- Place chicken legs in a large roasting pan and thoroughly coat with the jerk rub, ensuring even distribution.
- Marinate chicken in the refrigerator for at least 40 minutes, or up to 24 hours for deeper flavor.
- Preheat oven to 450°F (232°C).
- Place the roasting pan in the upper third of the preheated oven and cook for 15 minutes.
- Turn the chicken legs and cook for an additional 15-20 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C) and the juices run clear.
- Let the chicken rest for 5 minutes before serving. Enjoy!
