For Coconut Rice:

Instructions:

Jerk Chicken Marinade:

  1. In a large bowl, combine all the jerk chicken marinade ingredients, ensuring the chicken is well coated. Cover and refrigerate for at least 2 hours or overnight for maximum flavor.

Coconut Rice:

  1. Rinse the basmati rice under cold water until the water runs clear.
  2. In a saucepan, combine the rice, coconut milk, water, and a pinch of salt. Bring to a boil.
  3. Reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 15-18 minutes, or until the rice is tender and the liquid is absorbed. Fluff the rice with a fork.

Jerk Chicken Curry:

  1. Heat a large skillet or pan over medium-high heat. Add a bit of oil.
  2. Add the marinated jerk chicken pieces and cook until browned on all sides and cooked through. Remove the chicken from the pan and set aside.
  3. In the same pan, add more oil if needed and sauté the chopped onions until softened.
  4. Add minced ginger and curry powder, cooking for 1-2 minutes until fragrant.
  5. Stir in tomato paste, coconut milk, chicken broth, and brown sugar. Bring to a simmer.
  6. Return the cooked jerk chicken to the pan, ensuring it's well coated in the curry sauce. Simmer for an additional 10-15 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
  7. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
