Steps:
- Combine the onion, garlic, jalapeno, soy sauce, sugar, thyme, cinnamon, allspice and a pinch of salt together in a food processor and blend for a couple of minutes, scraping up pieces that cling to the walls to make sure everything is blended evenly.
- Combine the jerk rub and the chicken legs in a casserole dish that is just big enough to fit the chicken pieces. Work the rub into the chicken, making sure to put the mixture under the skin as well. Cover and let the chicken marinate in the refrigerator for at least 3 hours or up to overnight.
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
- Drizzle the marinated chicken with vegetable oil and season with salt. Roast it in the marinade in the center rack of the oven until an instant-read thermometer shows an internal temperature of 165 degrees, about 40 minutes. Let the chicken cool slightly, then pull off the meat in large shreds, discarding the bones. Toss the shredded chicken with any leftover juices in the pan.
- Sandwich build: Spread some Pickapeppa Sour Cream on both sides of the bread. Place some of the Mango Chutney on the bread. Put on a layer of shredded chicken and top with some Fried Plaintains and cilantro. Serve extra plantains on the side. Enjoy, man!
- Mix together the sour cream, pickapeppa sauce and lime zest in a small bowl. Season with salt and pepper.
- Mix together the mangos, sugar, raisins, ginger, garlic, jalapeno and salt to taste in a medium bowl. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes or up to overnight.
- Combine the mango mixture with the vinegar and turmeric in a small saucepan and bring to a simmer. Cook, stirring occasionally to prevent the chutney from sticking to the pan until thickened and thoroughly combined, about 20 minutes.
- Fill a Dutch oven halfway with canola oil and heat to 350 degrees F.
- Peel the plantain and slice it lengthwise into long thin strips. (A mandolin slicer will give you the best results.) You can crack the peppercorns by crushing them with a heavy pan on a cutting board; you are looking for a very coarse grind. Drop the plantain strips in the hot oil and allow them to fry up crispy, about 1 minute. Transfer the plantains directly to a paper towel-lined plate and immediately season with salt and the cracked black peppercorns.
JERK CHICKEN AND BROWN SUGAR PLANTAINS WITH COCONUT RICE AND KALE
Jamaican jerk chicken is usually a laborious and lengthy culinary commitment. We've streamlined this Caribbean experience for you. Juicy bone-in chicken breasts are basted with our not-too-spicy favorite jerk sauce. (Wait, who you callin' a jerk sauce?) You'll peel and slice ripe plantains (the ones with black spots are perfect for this use) and cook them with brown sugar in the same pan as the chicken, so they soak up all that chicken-y goodness. These bold flavors are perfectly complemented with lightly sautéed kale and coconut milk rice.

Steps:
- Before You Cook Turn oven on to 400 degrees. Let preheat, at least 10 minutes If using any fresh produce, thoroughly rinse and pat dry Shake coconut milk well before opening can. Cooking Guidelines To ensure food safety, the FDA recommends the following as minimum internal cooking temperatures: Steak and Pork 145° F (rest cooked meat, 3 minutes) | Seafood 145° F | Chicken 165° F | Ground Beef 160° F | Ground Turkey 165° F | Ground Pork 160° F 1 Prepare the Ingredients Trim ends off plantain and make a slit down the side. Push your thumbs between skin and flesh of plantain and peel skin away. Cut plantain into 1/4" slices on an angle. Mince chives. Stem kale and coarsely chop. Pat chicken breasts dry, and season both sides with 1/4 tsp. salt and a pinch of pepper. 2 Cook the Rice Bring a small pot with rice, half the coconut milk, 1/2 cup water, and 1/4 tsp. salt to a boil. Reduce to a simmer, cover, and cook until rice is tender, 18-20 minutes. Remove from burner, fluff with a fork, and set aside. While rice cooks, sear chicken. 3 Sear and Roast Chicken Toss plantains with 1/2 tsp. olive oil, brown sugar, and 1/4 tsp. salt in a mixing bowl. Heat a large non-stick oven-safe pan over medium-high heat. Add 1 tsp. olive oil and chicken, skin side down, to hot pan and cook until skin is golden brown, 4-5 minutes. Flip chicken to skin side-up, and cook 3 minutes. 4 Cook the Plantains Flip chicken skin side down again, and add plantain slices. Place pan in oven and roast 8 minutes. Carefully, flip plantains and roast until chicken reaches a minimum internal temperature of 165 degrees, 8-10 minutes. Carefully, remove pan from oven (handle will be hot). Transfer chicken and plantains to a plate and set aside. While chicken cooks, sauté kale. 5 Sauté the Kale Heat a medium non-stick pan over medium-high heat. Add 1 tsp. olive oil and kale to hot pan. Stir occasionally until just wilted, 2-3 minutes. Season with a pinch of salt and pepper and set aside. 6 Finish the Dish Plate dish as pictured on front of card, saucing chicken with jerk sauce and garnishing meal with chives. Bon appétit!
