Set aside. In a blender or food processor puree the green onions, onion, peppers, thyme and garlic to a smooth paste. Place mixture in a bowl and add the toasted/ground spices, lime juice or vinegar, soy sauce and raw sugar; mix well. With a sharp knife, score the chicken pieces in several places and season with salt. Spoon desired amount of jerk marinade over chicken and rub into scores. Marinate, covered, in the refrigerator for a minimum of 2 hour or overnight. Preheat the oven to 350 °F (175°C) . Bake chicken for 35 minutes in the oven. Remove from the oven and finish the chicken on a hot grill or under the broiler.
