Cooking Steps

1
1

In a medium saucepan, add coconut milk, the water and the salt. Bring to the boil, then add basmati rice. Stir, cover with a lid and reduce heat to low. Cook for 15 minutes, then remove pan from heat. Keep covered until rice is tender and the water is absorbed, 10 minutes.

TIP: The rice will finish cooking in its own steam so don't peek!

While rice is cooking, finely chop cucumber. Finely chop cherry tomatoes. Pick and thinly slice the leaves from the herbs (save some whole leaves for lunch!). Thinly slice fresh chilli (if using). Place your hand flat on top of each chicken breast and slice through horizontally to make two thin steaks. In a large bowl, combine mild Caribbean jerk seasoning (see ingredients) and a good drizzle of olive oil. Add chicken, tossing to coat.

Drain the sweetcorn. Heat a large frying pan over high heat. Cook corn kernels, tossing, until lightly charred, 4-5 minutes. Transfer to a medium bowl.

TIP: Cover the pan with a lid if the kernels are "popping" out.

Return frying pan to medium-high heat. Cook chicken, in batches, until cooked through, 3-5 minutes each side (depending on thickness). Meanwhile, to the bowl with the corn, add cucumber, chopped herbs, fresh chilli and 1/2 the tomatoes. Add a drizzle of white wine vinegar and a pinch of salt and pepper. Stir to combine.

TIP: Chicken is cooked through when it's no longer pink inside.

Slice Caribbean chicken, then reserve two portions for lunch. Divide coconut rice between bowls. Top with remaining chicken. Spoon over the corn salsa. Garnish with sliced herbs to serve.

When you're ready to pack lunch, divide reserved Caribbean chicken between two microwavable containers. Divide mini flour tortillas, mixed leaves, reserved herbs, remaining tomatoes and the coconut sweet chilli mayonnaise between two lunch containers. Refrigerate the containers. At lunch, microwave chicken in 30 second bursts, until heated through. Spread tortillas with coconut sweet chilli mayonnaise, then top with tomatoes, mixed leaves, reserved herbs and chicken. Roll up and enjoy!
