Serves 3 to 4
Ingredients
1 package Smart Chicken tenders
2 teaspoons allspice
½ cup brown sugar, packed
2 tablespoons fresh ginger, peeled and minced
8 cloves garlic, peeled
1 habanero (use a jalapeño for less heat), cored and seeded
2 tablespoons dried thyme
1 bunch (6 to 10) green onions, roots and tops trimmed
1 teaspoon ground clove
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon cinnamon
⅓ cup soy sauce
½ cup orange juice
Juice from ½ lime
Directions
To a blender or the bowl of a food processer, add allspice, brown sugar, ginger, garlic, habanero, dried thyme, green onions, clove, salt, cinnamon, soy sauce, orange juice, and lime juice; blend until semi-smooth (coarse, but no big chunks). Transfer mixture to a gallon-size sealable plastic bag or a 9x13 glass baking dish. Transfer the tenders to the bag or dish; toss until tenderloins are covered in the mixture. Seal bag or cover dish and marinate for at least 2 hours or overnight.
Preheat grill to medium-high heat. Grill tenders 2 to 3 minutes per side, or until thickest portion registers 165°F, approximately 4 to 8 minutes. Serve with your favorite dipping sauce, like ranch or blue cheese dressing.
