Ingredients
- 4 stalks Green onions
- 2 pieces Scotch bonnet peppers
- 4 cloves Garlic cloves
- 2 tablespoons Fresh thyme leaves
- 1 tablespoon Allspice berries
- 1 teaspoon Cinnamon
- 1 teaspoon Nutmeg
- 2 teaspoons Salt
- 1 teaspoon Black pepper
- 0.5 cup Olive oil
- 0.25 cup Soy sauce
- 3 tablespoons Fresh lime juice
- 2 tablespoons Apple cider vinegar
- 1 tablespoon Erythritol
Directions
Step 1
Trim and roughly chop the green onions, and place them in the blender.
Step 2
Remove stems and seeds from Scotch bonnet peppers, then add them to the blender for a spicier sauce. If less heat is desired, only add one pepper.
Step 3
Peel the garlic cloves and add them to the blender.
Step 4
Add fresh thyme leaves, allspice berries, cinnamon, nutmeg, salt, and black pepper to the blender.
Step 5
Pour olive oil, soy sauce, fresh lime juice, apple cider vinegar, and erythritol into the blender.
Step 6
Blend all the ingredients together until a smooth paste is formed. If necessary, stop occasionally to scrape down the sides with a spatula.
Step 7
Taste the sauce and adjust the salt or add more erythritol, depending on preferences.
Step 8
Transfer the sauce to a clean, airtight container, and keep refrigerated until you're ready to use it. It will stay fresh for up to a week.
Step 9
Use this jerk sauce to marinate poultry, pork, beef, or even vegetables. Marinate for at least 2 hours, or ideally overnight, for the best flavor infusion.
