Spicy foods always need a balance to your palate. Wine can also pair well with a Caribbean dish aside from rum or beer. A great sweet element to cool the spice is a light white wine. A Riesling, preferably from Germany, is a great choice because the grapes are not as sweet but have great acidity.
Combine all the spices to make a jerk rub for your chicken. Make adjustments to the amount of your spices for your own flavor preference. Coat your chicken pieces with the spice mixture and ¼ cup of olive oil. Let chicken marinate for no less than 4 hours or overnight. Preheat the oven for 350 degrees and place the remaining ¼ cup olive oil in a 9x3 baking dish. Add marinated chicken to dish and bake for 1 hour or until chicken is no longer pink. Serve with garlic rice or peas and rice. Via @winechateau
