Directions

Jerk Seasoning & Chicken

1. Combine onion,scallions , Scotch bonnet (Habenero) peppers, garlic cloves ,five spice powder , ground all spice berries , coarsely ground pepper , dried thyme grated nutmeg, powdered ginger, cup sauce, vegetable oil, white vinegar and lime juice in a blender or food processor and use the chop setting to chop and mix all the ingredients together.
2. Add the jerk seasoning to the chicken in a bowl and make sure the chicken is evenly coated.
3. Refrigerate overnight or a minimum of 2 hours.
4. Cook the chicken on a grill slowly, turning occasionally for approximately 20-30 minutes. The slower you cook the chicken the smokier the flavor gets. Alternatively you can cook the chicken in a cast iron skillet if you dont have a grill.

Rice

1. Cook rice as you would normally. (if you dont have a rice cooker I would strongly suggest you get one)

Beans

1. Put the oil in the saucepan, when the oil gets hot add the onion, garlic and bacon.
2. After about 2min when the onion begins to caramelize and the bacon gets crispy add the beans.
3. Let simmer for 10 min and serve over rice.

Garnish with Goya Plantain chips and lime.
