AIP Jerk Chicken Fingers
Did you know that jerk seasoning was originally created by African slaves in Jamaica who fled into the jungle to escape British soldiers, once there they used what food sources they could find and came up with the original spicy jerk sauce to season their food. Of course it contained many ingredients that aren't AIP compatible. Chef Ann has created a Jerk style seasoning that is AIP compliant and oh so tasty. This would be great for AIP wings too! Give it a try and let us know how it turned out.
