Mango Barbecued Jerk Chicken Thighs
“I like my food bursting with flavor, so I love to experiment with all different ethnic recipes. Sweet, tangy barbecue sauce goes well with the heat of the jerk-seasoned marinade in this recipe. Ease of prep plus an appealing presentation make it great for entertaining. And friends always come back for seconds!” —Karen Cambiotti, Stroudsburg, Pennsylvania

Excellent! Moist with a great balance of heat. I left chicken to marinate while I was at work. So this makes for a quick dinner during the busy week. I used whole cut-up chicken so I doubled the marinade. I'm not a fan of Cilantro, but Italian parsley is a easy substitute.
I have done this recipe twice for large groups adjusting the recipe according to my needs (did it once for 50 and once for 30) Both times I got RAVE reviews and everyone wanted the recipe. When I did it the first time, because I needed to prepare the chicken the day before, I marinated the chicken and then cooked it in the oven for about 40 minutes. Then I put the chicken with the barbecue sauce into a slow cooker and set it on "keep warm". When we ate it 3 hours later it was hot and all the flavours had melded. The second time, for the smaller group, I again marinated the chicken, put it in pans and spread the barbecue sauce on top. Cooked for about 40 minutes at 180 C. Fabulous recipe!! Thank You!
This was amazing! We used fresh oranges and limes for the juice and hot jerk seasoning. I have no idea how the leftovers would be because it all disappeared at supper. Excellent recipe.

Our friend said it is easily the best homemade chicken he has ever had!!
We made this with friends with chicken breasts. We also cooked the breasts on the grill. This was voted by all as one of the best chicken recipes we've ever made. It was just as good cold, the next day for lunch !
