... Read moreJamaican rice and peas is a classic Caribbean dish known for its rich and aromatic flavors. This recipe stands out by using coconut milk, which adds a creamy texture and subtle sweetness that perfectly complements the savory spices. The key ingredients include light red kidney beans, soaked until tender, and then cooked with coconut milk, habanero pepper for a mild heat, and a blend of seasonings such as black pepper, thyme, onion and garlic powder, and seasoned salt. For the chicken, baking it at 400°F covered for nearly two hours ensures it remains juicy and tender while allowing the seasoning to deeply infuse the meat. Incorporating onions and green and red peppers in the cooking process enhances both the flavor and aroma of the dish. This Caribbean meal is not only flavorful but also nutritious, with the kidney beans providing plant-based protein and fiber. The use of natural herbs and spices aligns with authentic Jamaican cooking techniques, giving an inviting balance of heat and comfort. To perfect your rice and peas, it’s important to add rice only after the beans are softened, then cook everything together so the rice absorbs the savory liquid. Seasoning to taste throughout the cooking process lets you customize the flavor to your preference. This recipe is a great option for home cooks looking to explore Caribbean cuisine using easily available ingredients while maintaining authenticity. Serve alongside traditional Caribbean sides or enjoy it as a satisfying standalone meal.

JAMAIVAN RICE AND PEAS (DRY PEAS EDITION )
When I was growing up in Jamaica there were unspoken rules about food. One was that you must always serve rice and peas on Sunday. If you served white rice with your Sunday dinner people would think you’re lazy.  Today people eat rice and peas whenever they want, but I still only like to serve it

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!
