Jamaican Jerk Chicken Breasts Recipe

Ingredients

  • 1 cup long grain white rice
  • 1/3 cup (80 ml) freshly squeezed lime juice
  • 2 tablespoons plus 1 teaspoon olive oil
  • 2 teaspoons unsulfured molasses
  • 2 cloves garlic, peeled and finely chopped
  • 1 jalapeño pepper, seeded and finely chopped
  • salt & freshly ground black pepper to taste
  • 15 oz (450 ml) can adzuki beans or black beans,drained and rinsed
  • 1/2 cup chopped scallions
  • 7 oz (210 ml) jar roasted red peppers,drained,rinsed and diced
  • 6 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro
  • 1 pound boneless, skinless chicken breasts,trimmed of fat
  • lime wedges for garnish

Method

Step 1

Bring a pot of salted water to a boil. Add rice and cook over medium heat until the rice is tender but still firm,12 to 15 minutes. Drain in a sieve and rinse under cold water to separate the grains. Drain well and set aside. In a large bowl, whisk together lime juice, 2 tablespoons oil, molasses, garlic, and jalapeño. Season with salt and pepper.

Step 2

Add beans, scallions, red pepper,4 tablespoons of the cilantro and the cooked rice. Set aside.

Step 3

Meanwhile, prepare a grill or preheat the broiler and broiler pan. Brush chicken breasts with the remaining 1 teaspoon oil and grill or broil, basting with Pickapeppa sauce until the meat is no longer pink in the center, about 4 minutes per side. Let cool slightly. Cut chicken breasts in half lengthwise and cut into thin slices against the grain. Add to the rice mixture. Taste and adjust seasonings with salt and pepper. Garnish Jamaican chicken breasts with rice and beans with lime wedges and the remaining 2 tablespoons cilantro.
