Festive Jerk Chicken with Plantains, Rice, and Peas

 
 
Ingredients -
 

For the Jerk Chicken

4 chicken breasts
3 tablespoons light soy sauce
1 bunch green onions, trimmed
Black pepper
4 tablespoons white wine vinegar
Pinch of ground cinnamon
Pinch of ground cloves
˝ teaspoon each paprika, dried thyme and ground allspice
2 inch piece root ginger, peeled and chopped
1 clove garlic
1 or 2 Scotch Bonnet chilies, de-seeded

For the Rice and Peas:

1 cup white rice
1 minced onion
1 can red kidney beans
1 sliced scallion
1 clove garlic
Chicken bouillon or coconut milk

For the Tostones (Fried Green Plantains):

2 green plantains, peeled and sliced an inch thick Salt
Vegetable oil

 
Preparation:
 

Rinse the chicken and pat it dry on kitchen paper. Place them in a shallow dish.

Process all the other jerk chicken ingredients in a food processor until smooth and pour all but 3 tablespoons of this mixture over the chicken. Toss well. Leave to marinate in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours.

Remove the chicken from the marinade and grill over hot coals for 30 minutes, turning over and basting occasionally with the reserved marinade until cooked through.

For the rice and peas, sauté the onions and garlic over a medium heat for 3 or 4 minutes. Add the rice, scallions and beans. Stir well. Pour enough bouillon or coconut milk over the rice to cover it and another inch on top. Bring to the boil and let it cook down once it reaches the level of the rice. Stir once, turn the heat to low, cover, and cook for 20 minutes.

Fry the plantains for 2 or 3 minutes then drain on paper towels. Smash them with a mallet then fry again for 2 minutes.

Drain and season with salt.

Serve everything together.

(Serves 4)
