Ingredients

8 green onions, finely chopped (about 1 cup)
1 habanero pepper, steamed and finely chopped
2 tablespoons peanut oil
3 garlic cloves, chopped
1 cup brown sugar
2 tablespoons smoked paprika
2 teaspoons fresh thyme
2 teaspoons fresh basil
2 teaspoons ground ginger
2 teaspoons coriander
1 teaspoon chili powder
1/2 teaspoon allspice
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon ground cloves
1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1/2 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
1/2 tablespoon black pepper
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon lime juice

Preparation

Combine all the ingredients in a blender (or use an emmulsion blender). Blend into a thick, chunky paste. Refrigerate for at least 2 hrs for flavors to blend. (You can also opt to just mix well for a chunkier rub).
The mixture will keep in a tightly sealed container in the refrigerator for several months.
