1
red onion
2 clove
garlic
1 knob
ginger
2 tsp
Cajun seasoning
(May be present: Gluten.)
1
Long Chilli
350 g
chicken thigh
270 ml
coconut milk
250 g
rice
1 tin
red kidney beans
1 tbs
coriander
1
birdseye chilli
olive oil
Preheat the oven to 200ºC/180ºC fan-forced.

Place the olive oil, red onion, garlic, ginger, brown sugar, HelloFresh Cajun seasoning, birdseye chilli, salt and pepper into a food processor and blend until smooth. You can achieve a similar result by bashing all of the ingredients in a mortar and pestle. Place the chicken thigh fillets on a lined baking tray and rub over the jerk paste and place in the oven for about 25-30 minutes or until the chicken is cooked through.

Bring the coconut milk (be sure to measure out the correct amount), rice, and water to the boil in a saucepan over a medium heat. Cover with a tightly fitting lid, reduce the heat to low and cook for 10-15 minutes or until almost cooked through. Add the kidney beans and cook for a further 3-5 minutes until the rice is tender. Remove from the heat, stand until required, and then toss through the coriander.
Divide the coconut rice between bowls and then top with the deliciously tasty jerk chicken and enjoy
