Jerk Spiced Grilled Chicken Legs with Fresh Lime

Summer is the perfect time to enjoy the outdoors while grilling your dinner. Jamaican jerk seasoning is an exotic combination of heat and spices that enhances the flavor of grilled meats. Chicken legs are a juicy and inexpensive poultry option that pairs well with the tart lime and bold Jerk flavors of this Jamaican grill recipe.


Ingredients:
1 pound fresh free range chicken legs
1-2 teaspoons Jamaican Jerk Seasoning Rub (Busha Browne's brand)
Sea salt
Fresh lime

Method:
1.) Dry chicken legs and rub with jerk seasoning. (Use more or less depending on how spicy you want your chicken). Season lightly with sea salt and zest of a lime.
2.) Grill chicken legs on gas grill over medium high heat for 10 minutes then flip. Grill an additional 10 minutes. Squeeze fresh lime on chicken an continue grilling for 4 more minutes or until chicken skin is crisp and golden brown.
3.) Serve chicken with additional lime wedge, Paleo cole slaw and sweet potato fries seasoned with chili powder and garlic.
