Instructions

  • 1Place all the jerk ingredients, except the chicken in a blender and blend, scraping down the side occasionally, until pureed.
  • 2Place the chicken in a large bowl. Add the jerk seasoning and turn to coat. Chicken can be cooked straight away or refrigerated overnight.
  • 3Insert the wire rack into position 6. Set the oven to Air Fry, Super Convection, 400°F, for 35 minutes and press Start to preheat. Meanwhile, continue to the next step.
  • 4For easy cleaning and to avoid burning, line the roasting pan with foil and place the broiling rack on top. Place the chicken, skin side up on the rack.
  • 5Once preheated, place the pan in the oven and air fry for 35 minutes. When there is 10 minute remaining on the timer, rotate the pan, reduce the temperature to 350°F and continue cooking.
  • 6The chicken is ready when a meat thermometer inserted into the thickest part reads a minimum of 165°F. If not, air fry a little longer.
    Tip: The size of the chicken thighs can alter the cooking time. For best results, using a probe, test for doneness 3-5 minutes before the end of the cook.
  • 7Remove from the oven. Cover loosely with foil and let it rest for 5 minutes.
  • 8Serve the chicken with cilantro and lime wedges.
