  • 1 tsp fresh thyme

  • To make the marinade combine oil, garlic, ginger, green onion, jalapeno, bay leaf, rum, lime juice, salt, allspice, thyme and brown sugar. Puree in a food processor or blender until finely chopped.
  • Cut the breast into large cubes. Mix the turkey cubes with marinade.
  • Cover and refrigerate for 4 -24 hours.
  • Thread onion, mango and turkey onto 4 skewers alternating each item.

Notes

Cooking over hardwood charcoal and adding dried allspice berries to the coals will produce the most authentic “jerk” flavour.
