Method

1

Pat chicken dry and score lightly. Combine jerk seasoning, coconut oil, and lime juice in a large mixing bowl. Add chicken, coat thoroughly, and let sit 15–20 minutes (or up to 8 hours refrigerated).

2

Heat 2 tbsp coconut oil in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Add rice and stir 2 minutes to toast lightly. Pour in vegetable broth, bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer until rice is tender and liquid is absorbed, about 18–20 minutes.

3

Heat a grill or grill pan to medium-high. Grill chicken 6–8 minutes per side until cooked through and charred at edges; transfer to a plate to rest.

4

In the same grill pan, sear bell pepper and okra over medium-high heat 4–5 minutes until lightly charred. Add sweet potato cubes and cook 8–10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until tender and caramelized. Season with salt to taste.

5

Divide cooked rice among four plates. Slice rested chicken and arrange on top. Add grilled vegetables beside the chicken and rice.

6

Garnish each plate with sliced scallion and serve warm.
