Combine scotch bonnet peppers, allspice, thyme, garlic, ginger, green onions, soy sauce, brown sugar, lime juice, nutmeg, cinnamon, black pepper, and salt in a blender.

Blend until smooth to create the marinade.

Place chicken in a large bowl or resealable bag and pour marinade over it.

Seal the bag or cover the bowl, then refrigerate for at least 2 hours, preferably overnight.

Preheat a grill to medium-high heat.

Remove chicken from marinade, allowing excess to drip off.

Brush grill grates with vegetable oil to prevent sticking.

Place chicken on the grill and cook for 30-40 minutes, turning occasionally, until fully cooked and juices run clear.

For added flavor, smoke the chicken with pimento wood during grilling if available.

Let the chicken rest for 5 minutes before serving.

Serve with rice and peas or a fresh salad.
