4 cloves garlic
1 onion, cut into 6 wedges
2 habanero peppers, seeded
1 bunch green onions, chopped into 1 inch pieces
1 tablespoon dried thyme
1 ½ teaspoons ground allspice
1 inch piece fresh ginger root, peeled
salt and pepper to taste
¾ cup rum
⅜ cup dark molasses
4 limes, zested and juiced
4 boneless skinless chicken breasts, cut into 1 inch pieces

Steps:

  • Place garlic, onion, habanero peppers, green onions, thyme, allspice, and ginger into the bowl of a food processor; blend until smooth. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Transfer mixture to a large, non metallic bowl, and stir in rum, molasses, and lime zest and juice. Place chicken in bowl, and turn to coat. Cover, and marinate for 24 hours.
  • Preheat grill for high heat.
  • Remove meat from marinade, and thread onto skewers. Boil marinade in a small saucepan for at least 3 minutes.
  • Brush grate with oil, and arrange skewers on hot grate. Slowly cook the chicken until slightly charred and cooked through, brushing with the marinade every time you turn the meat.
