Directions:
- Discard stems, seeds, and ribs from 2 chiles and coarsely chop.
- Coarsely chop remaining chile including seeds (for a less spicy dish, seed half of chile before chopping).
- Blend chiles with remaining ingredients except chicken in a food processor until a paste forms.
- Cut several 1-inch-long slits in each piece of chicken, then rub paste all over chicken, rubbing it into slits.
- Marinate, covered and chilled, at least 2 hours or up to 1 day (longer is better for flavour).
- To cook chicken on charcoal kettle grill: When charcoal turns grayish white (15 to 20 minutes from lighting) and you can hold your hand 5 inches about top rack for 3 to 4 seconds, grill chicken, skin sides down first, on portion of lightly oiled grill rack with no coals underneath, turning occasionally, until cooked through, 20 to 30 minutes.
- To cook chicken using indirect heat on gas grill: Preheat all burners on high (until thermostat registers 500°F).
- Turn off 1 burner and reduce heat on other burner (or burners) to medium.
- (Thermostat should register 350 to 375°F.) Grill chicken, skin sides down first, on portion of lightly oiled grill rack over unlit burner, covered, turning occasionally, until cooked through, 20 to 30 minutes.
- If you aren't able to grill, you can roast jerk chicken, skin sides up, in 2 large shallow flameproof baking pans (1 inch deep) in upper and lower thirds of a preheated 450°F oven, switching position of pans halfway through roasting, until cooked through, 25 to 30 minutes.
- Then turn on broiler and broil chicken, about 4 inches from heat, until skin is browned and crisp, 2 to 3 minutes.
