  • 36.40 gm Australian Extra Virgin Olive Oil
  • 40.00 ml garlic powder
  • 9.60 gm salt
  • 18.00 gm white sugar
  • 20.00 ml dried oregano leaves
  • 2 tsp allspice
  • 2 tsp chilli powder
  • 1 tsp ground black pepper
  • 2.50 gm ground cinnamon
  • 1 tsp ground cloves
  • 1 whole fresh pineapple, peeled and cored and cut into small pieces
  • 2 jalapeno chili, seeds and membrane removed, diced
  • 18.20 gm Australian extra virgin olive oil
  • 125.00 ml coriander leaves, finely chopped
  • Sea salt, to taste
  • 1.300.00 gm jasmine rice
  • 1/2 tsp turmeric powder
  • 42.50 gm sultanas
  • 10.00 ml grape seed oil
  • 10 jalapenos, sliced
  • 2 cloves garlic, roughly chopped
  • 10.00 ml coriander seeds
  • 1/2 tsp cumin seeds
  • 2 ripe peach, skin removed, chopped
  • 4.80 gm sea salt
  • 18.00 gm sugar
  • 40.00 ml rice wine vinegar
  • Coriander sprigs, to serve
  • Lime wedges, to serve
Instructions:
  • Combine all spices in a small bowl and thoroughly mix. Rub the spices over both sides of the chicken, allowing it to marinate while you prepare the rest of the dish.
  • While the chicken is marinating, prepare the hot sauce. In a medium saucepan over medium heat, combine all ingredients. Cover and cook for 30 minutes until the ingredients have softened. Let it cool slightly, then use a stick blender to blend until smooth. Allow the sauce to cool completely before transferring it to a jar or sauce bottle.
  • Enhance your rice by infusing it with warm turmeric and plump sultanas at the beginning of the cooking process. Keep it warm until you're ready to enjoy its aromatic flavors.
  • While the hot sauce and rice cook, preheat a hooded BBQ or oven to 200C. Cook chicken skin side up for 15 minutes, flip and cook skin side down for 5 minutes or until slightly charred, then turn skin side up and cook for a further 15 minutes or until chicken is cooked through and juices run clear when tested. Allow to rest before serving.
  • Prepare the pineapple salsa by combining all ingredients in a bowl. Chill in the refrigerator until serving time while the chicken cooks.
  • Serve the components family style for a customizable experience, top with a generous spoonful of hot sauce, and garnish with additional coriander and lime.
