Answers:
Jamaican Rice and Peas

1 1/2 cups dried red kidney beans, soaked overnight and drained
2 cloves garlic, smashed
1/2 cup unsweetened coconut milk
3 green onions, thinly sliced, plus more for garnish
1 Scotch bonnet pepper, chopped
3 sprigs fresh thyme
1 1/2 cups long grain rice
Salt and freshly ground pepper

Place beans and garlic in a medium saucepan and cover with cold water!. Bring to a simmer and cook until the beans are tender, about 1 to 1 1/2 hours!. When the beans are tender, stir in the coconut milk, green onions, Scotch bonnet, and thyme, and increase the heat to a boil!. Stir in the rice, cover the pot, and cook until the rice is tender and has absorbed most of the liquid!. Transfer to a large serving bowl and garnish with sliced green onions!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

I've made this so many times!. I have added some coconut milk for some of the water!. I've skipped the green onions if I'm out!. Don't skip the pineapple!. Don't use brown rice!.

We LOVE this recipe (we love lime)!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

I don't know if this is a "caribbean dish" or not, but when I make jerk halibut I make mashed sweet potatos to go with it!. It would probably go great with the jerk chicken as well!. Feel free to contact me if you want the recipe!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
