Total time: 37 min
Yield: 4 servings
Cuisine: Jamaican
Ingredients: 12 Chicken Thighs; 1/2 Lime; 1 bunch Spring Onions; 1 tbsp Ginger; 3 clove Garlic; 1/2 Onion; 3 Red Chilli; 1/2 tsp Thyme; Lime; 2 tbsp Soy Sauce; 2 tbsp Vegetable Oil; 3 tbsp Brown Sugar; 1 tbsp Allspice; 200 g Basmati Rice; 400 g Coconut Milk; 1 bunch Spring Onions; 2 sprig Thyme; 2 clove Garlic; 1 tbsp Allspice; 800 g Kidney Beans

This recipe brings together spicy jerk chicken and creamy rice and peas. The chicken thighs marinate overnight in a punchy blend of aromatics, chillies, and spices, which makes them incredibly tender. You can cook the chicken on a barbecue for a smoky finish or roast it in the oven until it's cooked through. While the chicken cooks, the basmati rice simmers with coconut milk, thyme, and garlic, then gets folded with kidney beans for a hearty side.
