 Hey guys, welcome back to our channel. My name is Andrea with Food and Mentory Adventures in Food We are all about the food on our channel. We do grocery hauls taste test recipes and what's for dinner and today I am here to do a recipe for rice and peas So a while back ago on one of our what's for dinner videos I had this as a side dish and several people commented and asked if I would share the recipe so my husband is from Jamaica and his mother used to make rice and peas and So I created this version. It's a shortcut version. It's not, you know, the traditional Way that rice and peas are made but he really enjoys this version too. So I thought I'd share it with you guys It just calls for a few simple ingredients that you probably already have on hand So you are going to need two cups of rice. Now, I have a personal preference for Jasmine rice and so that's what I'm using You're also going to need some chicken bouillon some smoked paprika some garlic cloves You're going to need some small kidney beans chicken broth and Coconut milk and I will leave the recipe in the description. So you'll have the exact measurements so what I'm going to do first is to saute the garlic cloves and the raw rice in about a fourth of a cup of vegetable oil and in the meantime I'm going to completely rinse and drain the kidney beans and Then I'll come back and show you guys next steps Okay, so I have been sautéing two cups of the Jasmine rice along with the garlic in a quarter cup of Grape seed oil and you're supposed to saute it until It's brown. So I have been cooking mine on a medium heat for probably about Maybe eight minutes and as you can see it has a really good color So the next thing that you are going to do is to add in your two cups of chicken broth and one can of chicken broth So this is a 14 and a half ounce Can of chicken broth so you pour that in there and then you're going to add in your coconut milk And this is organic full fat coconut milk So it is going to be thicker than a like a light coconut milk So I'm just going to pour that in there. You can see it's a little chunky Because it's a full fat coconut milk. So I've poured that in there and then let me turn up the heat a little bit So now it's on a medium Maybe a little medium-high heat So I'm just going to stir in the coconut milk a little bit just to kind of break it down And it smells so good Then you're going to add in your smoked paprika and your chicken bouillon Just kind of try to stir this up for a little bit and now I'm adding in the Can of the Petite kidney beans and they are they've been completely rinsed and drained. So you're just going to pour those in there No, I just noticed I missed a little paprika I guess the heat from the pan kind of had it made it stick a little bit There it is All right So now all I'm going to do is cover this up. So I'm going to Cook this for probably about 15 20 minutes I'll come back and check and see if it's cooked and then I'll show you the finished product Okay guys, so here is the finished product I cooked it for I think it's about 18 minutes and halfway through I Stirred up the ingredients in the skillet and then I recovered it and continued cooking it As you can see it makes a lot and it's really light and Fluffy you can probably see the steam. I just turned off the fire There it is, but it is really good. It has a wonderful flavor So I hope you guys enjoyed this recipe if you did, please make sure to give me a thumbs up And if you haven't subscribed to our channel, I hope that you'll do so and I'll see you guys next time
