Having just got back from a great trip to Jamaica (highly recommend it this time of the year) and having lunch every day that consisted of Jerk chicken from the 'Jerk Chicken Shack' on the beach I thought it only be best to a recipe representing that lunch out for Friday Food. I hope it turns out as good as it was down on the island. Enjoy.
Ingredients:

-5 chicken drumsticks
-1 cup orange juice
Jerk Seasoning
-1 tbsp ground cinnamon
-1 tbsp ground cayenne pepper

-1 tsp Himalayan salt
-1 tsp black pepper
Ingredients for Pineapple Salsa
-1 cup pineapple
-Cilantro
-Lime juice (infused w/ jalapeno)

Game Plan:
Method for Pineapple Salsa
-Chop all ingredients and mix in a bowl
Method for Chicken
- Preheat oven to 400degF
- Coat chicken completely with Jerk seasoning. Lay it on thick.
- Sear the chicken on both sides on very high heat. About 3 minutes on each side should suffice
- When all sides are browned add the orange juice or stock and place your skillet in the oven
- Set the timer for 45 minutes. Add a bit more water or stock if needed during the cooking time.
