Jerk Chicken With Mango Coleslaw And Hot Sauce
  1. Place all the marinade ingredients, apart from the chicken and bay leaves, in a blender and whizz to a smooth paste.

  2. Rub this marinade over the chicken pieces and refrigerate overnight.

  3. Soak the bay leaves in water for 2 hours.

  4. When ready to cook, set up the barbecue for indirect cooking with the coals banked to one side. The coals should be hot embers with no flames. Set the temperature to 175°C, if using a barbecue with temperature control.

  5. Drain the bay leaves and place on top of the grill directly over the coals.

  6. Brush off most of the excess marinade from the chicken.

  7. Cook the chicken pieces on top of the bay leaves, moving regularly to ensure the chicken doesn’t burn, and moving to the area with no coals underneath if necessary. The chicken will take around 40 minutes to cook this way, so be patient.

  8. To make the mango coleslaw, combine the olive oil, maple syrup and lime juice and whisk together with some salt. Combine with the remaining coleslaw ingredients.

  9. Serve the chicken with the coleslaw and hot sauce.
