Instructions

Rinse and pat dry the chicken pieces, then set aside.
In a food processor, blend the habanero, scallions, garlic, thyme, brown sugar, allspice, soy sauce, lime juice, vegetable oil, salt, and pepper until smooth.
Place the chicken in a sealable plastic bag and pour in the marinade. Seal and refrigerate overnight for optimal flavor.
