# Anleitung:
01 - In a large mixing bowl, combine jerk seasoning, vegetable oil, minced garlic, chopped onion, Scotch bonnet pepper, fresh thyme leaves, lime juice, soy sauce, brown sugar, ground allspice, ground cinnamon, ground nutmeg, salt, and black pepper. Mix thoroughly until well combined.
02 - Add chicken thighs to the marinade and coat thoroughly on all sides. Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour, preferably overnight, to develop deeper flavor.
03 - Preheat oven to 400°F. Remove marinated chicken from refrigerator and place on a foil-lined baking tray. Roast for 35 to 40 minutes until cooked through with crispy skin. For additional charring, finish under the broiler for 2 to 3 minutes.
04 - While chicken roasts, combine coconut milk, water, drained kidney beans, rice, chopped spring onions, minced garlic, fresh thyme leaves, bay leaf, salt, and black pepper in a saucepan. Bring to a boil over high heat.
05 - Reduce heat to low, cover saucepan with lid, and simmer for 18 to 20 minutes until rice is tender and liquid is absorbed. Remove from heat and allow to steam, covered, for 5 minutes. Fluff with a fork and discard bay leaf.
06 - Arrange jerk chicken on a serving plate and top with coconut rice and kidney beans mixture. Garnish with additional fresh thyme or lime wedges if desired. Serve immediately.
