Jamaican Rice & Peas is one of the most well liked of recent trending meals in the world. It’s easy, it’s quick, it tastes delicious. It’s appreciated by millions every day. They’re fine and they look wonderful. Jamaican Rice & Peas is something which I’ve loved my entire life.

To get started with this particular recipe, we have to prepare a few components. You can have jamaican rice & peas using 9 ingredients and 4 steps. Here is how you cook that.

The ingredients needed to make Jamaican Rice & Peas:

1. Prepare 1 cup red kidney beans or 1 can pinto beans( I used kidney beans
2. Get 1 pack coconut powder or 1 can coconut cream
3. Make ready 2 cups long grain rice or your fav
4. Get 1/4 cup butter
5. Make ready 1/2 tsp Salt
6. Get 2 sprig (stalk) thymes
7. Prepare 1 tsp chicken seasoning or paprika (optional)
8. Get 1 green scotch bonnet pepper(jamaican pepper)
9. Get 1 garlic

Check the level of liquid over the rice and make sure there is at least one inch of liquid (if not, you may add water or broth to cover). When doing research for our recent Jamaican goat curry recipe, what came up most often as an accompaniment was something those from Jamaica call "rice and peas". (Several commenters suggested this dish too.) Traditionally the "peas" are pigeon peas, often substituted with kidney beans (which is what we are using). The rice is cooked in coconut milk. It was a super simple recipe I found in a magazine, something I could cook very quickly in the evening after work, filling, cheap and delicious.

Steps to make Jamaican Rice & Peas:

1. If using can beans pour bean in 2 cups of boiling water and follow the rest of the recipe. If used red kidney beans wash beans and then add to 7 cups of water with the garlic and allow to cook or until beans are tender. Used pressure cooker for quicker cooking
2. To the cooked beans stir in coconut milk or cream(if used powder mix it in 1 cup of water), salt, seasoning,thyme,pepper,butter,jamaican pepper and cover and cook for 5mins
3. Wash rice and then stir it into coconut mixture. Cover and let simmer for 20 mins on low heat or until rice is cooked and all the liquid is dried up. Ps less liquid the better so the rice doesnt become a puddle. I'd say liquid should be 1inch above the rice.if your liquid is too much the cooking time is longer and the rice will be overcooked. Stir occasionally throughout the cooking period to ensure all grains of the rice is cooked and doesnt stick to the pot.
4. Enjoy!
