Instructions to make Mike's Jerk Chicken - Spicy Beans/Rice & Fried Plantains:

1. First - Jerk Chicken Dish - The EASY way. ● Open 2 10 oz jars Traditional Jerk Seasoning. ● WALKERSWOOD TRADITIONAL makes a great Jamaican Jerk seasoning and, has all the fantastic flavors I remember from my visit there. ● If you can't find that specific brand - here's a quick Chefs tip. Jarred Jamaican Jerk Seasoning is one of those few culinary items where the most expensive - is usually the best. So look for the $6.00+ per bottle range..
2. FOR YOUR EASY CHICKEN PURÉE ● Purée these ingredients in a blender. 1 bunch scallions, chopped 1 large onion, roughly chop 2 scotch bonnet peppers [habeneros will work as well - optional] 1/4 cup chicken broth 1/2 tsp dried thyme 10 garlic cloves 1/8 cup lime juice ● Mix this simple purée to your 2 10 oz bottles of jarred jerk seasoning..
3. Rinse 8 pieces of bone in chicken and pat dry. Your choice of cut. I typically use thighs. Skin on. They tend to lend more fat and flavor..
4. Marinate chicken in your jerk seasoning and purée mixture in a large zip lock bag for 2+ hours. Or, even overnight if possible..
5. ● Bake chicken plus marinade at 400° for 1 hour. Following that, peirce your thickest piece of chicken with a knife. If the juices run clear, they're done. If not, bake a bit longer. ● Pull from oven and char chicken on a heated BBQ grill until there's a nice cross hatch char on each piece. ● Side note: Since both of my grills were completely frozen shut, I couldn't grill my chicken tonight. Just try to visualize them with a glorious, delectable, solid cross cut char on them. ;0) ● I would eventually be forced to fry them on high with a minimal amount of high heat oil to achieve a decent char. Then, I drained them on paper towels. I also fried in 4 piece batches..
6. Charred thighs draining on paper towels..
7. FOR THE EASY SPICY RICE & BEANS 5 cups microwavable brown or white rice. Or, use both. [i'll usually mix it up with a cup of uncle bens microwavable red beans and rice] 1 cup firm kidney beans [drained] 1 splash frying oil 2/3 cup chicken broth [you may need a bit more] 3/4 cup white onions [small chop] 2 cloves garlic [minced] 1 tsp Tony Chachere's Seasoning Fresh cracked black pepper to taste 1 Scotch Bonnet or Habenero pepper [fine minced or leave whole and pull after frying - it'll still leave behind the heat and flavor] 1 splash coconut milk ● Fry/sweat everything [except for beans, rice and broth] together until opaque or, translucent. About 4 minutes. Be careful not to burn your garlic though. Stir regularly. ● Add your rice, beans and broth and fry covered until both are fully heated and rice has absorbed the fluid. Stir regularly..
8. FOR THE EASY FAUX PLANTAINS [since plantains are somewhat harder to find] 4 extremely firm bananas [cut into 1/2" slices at an angle] High heat cooking Oil Fresh Lime Wedges [as needed] ● Heat oil on high. Then, fry bananas in oil on medium high until golden brown. ● Drain on paper towels and generously drizzle bananas with lime juice..
