In a food processor, blend together the lime juice, peppers, vinegar, orange juice, scallions, basil, thyme, mustard seeds, allspice, cloves, salt, and pepper, until smooth. Pour the jerk mixture into a large bowl. Add the chicken legs and toss well to coat the chicken. Refrigerate for at least one hour. Lightly oil the grill rack, and heat the grill to medium-high. Arrange the chicken skin side down on the cooler part of the grill. Cover the grill and cook the chicken for 20 minutes. Turn the chicken and cook for a further 15 minutes.
