Preparation
I marinated some boneless and skinless chicken thighs in the juice of 1 lime, some @schwartz
Uk jerk seasoning, salt, pepper, ground coriander and garlic! Just added as much as I fancied! Let this marinade for at least half an hour but the longer the better! I then grilled this in my oven grill on a medium heat, turning half way through until cooked and crispy! I sprayed the chicken with some canola oil! Once cooked let the chicken rest before serving
I fried off some white onion and mixed peppers in some canola oil
Once softened I added some salt, pepper, @verylazyfooduk garlic, some more @schwartz
Uk jerk seasoning
Let this fry off for a few minutes, then I added a small tin of red kidney beans and the rice that I wanted (I didn’t weigh it out sorry! Just used enough that I know would feed 4 meals
I then topped this with some stock (made up of some water and 1 @knorruk lime & ginger pot), I measure this so that the stock only comes to the crease on the palm-side of my finger above the rice
I then put the heat on high until the water boiled then turned it down to a low-medium heat until the rice is cooked (around 10/15 mins) and then fluffed it up
Topped with the chicken, fresh herbs, lime wedges and spring onions
