I do chicken breast wrapped in aluminium foil. First slice the chicken halfway through and rub in chicken stock. Wrap the chicken, place it on an ovenproof dish and cook at 180C for 50 minutes. Wrapping the chicken keeps the flavour in. The rice I do in a steamer. The peas I microwave in a suitable microwave dish (covered) because the little blighters pop and leap everywhere. When all is ready, serve with chopped iceberg lettuce and a handful of fine chopped chives, sage, mint and coriander. Or you could serve with sliced potatoes boiled soft with a sprig of mint and served buttered.

2 x 410g cans kidney beans

Method

1.Heat oven to 220C/200C fan/gas 7. Heat the oil in a roasting tin, then carefully add the chicken pieces. Brown them lightly on all sides - it will take about 6-8 mins. Pour over the jerk sauce, scatter over the sliced spring onions, then toss to coat each piece of chicken.
2.Roast the chicken for 30 mins, turning occasionally to ensure it gets nice and sticky.
3.While the chicken is cooking, make the rice & peas. Rinse the rice in a sieve until the water runs clear. Bring a pan of water to the boil with the liquid only from the kidney beans, the coconut milk, spring onions, thyme, garlic, allspice and some salt, then simmer for 10 mins. Add the beans, then simmer for 5 mins more until the rice is tender. Drain and serve straight away with the chicken.



Put it all in a glass baking pan, add enough water to cover the rice, creme of mushroom soup, and sprinkle peas on top. Cover with aluminum foil, bake at 375 for about an hour.



boil rice, put the chicken in the oven for like 40mins on 170 and then boil the peas up too once they're done you can drain both pans add place them on a plate n heat up some sauce then season at the end with pepper or whatever
