- Mix together the juice of half a lime, a tbsp and a half of light coconut milk and a tablespoon of jerk chicken spice.
- Once mixed - massage into chicken pieces evenly and place in the fridge for 15 minutes (you can leave for longer if you want stronger marinade).
- Pre-heat the oven to gas mark 6. Place chicken in a small roasting tin and cook for 40/50 minutes, turning part way through..
- Mix together 200ml of coconut milk and 100ml cold water into a jug.
- When the chicken has had about 30 minutes - put the oil into a deep frying pan and heat. Add chopped spring onions and fry to soften..
- Rinse the basmati rice and add to the pan with the kidney beans. Then add the water and coconut milk mixture and cook until rice is soft (note: you may need more water to ensure rice is cooked so monitor and taste!). When its nearly done, with 5 minutes to go - add the frozen peas..
