Jamaican Oxtail with Rice and Peas
Sharing one of my favorite recipes ever! I love the sweet, savory, and bold flavors of this oxtail dish. The meat is so tender, and I love coating the rice with the delicious sauce from the stew. While it may not be fully authentic, I did my best to emulate the cultural aspects and flavors. Enjoy!
