Instructions

2-serving instructions (4-serving modifications in red)

Wash produce before use

1

Cook the rice and beans

  • Rinse the kidney beans.

In a small [medium] sauce pot, combine the rice, coconut milk, and 1¼ cups [2 cups] water and season lightly with salt. Bring to a boil, reduce to a simmer, cover, and cook until the rice is almost tender, about 25 minutes. Stir in the beans, cover, and cook until the beans are heated through, the rice is tender, and the liquid is absorbed, 3 to 5 minutes. Fluff with a fork, cover, and keep warm. While the rice and beans are cooking, prepare the rest of the meal.

2

Pickle the vegetables

  • Peel and thinly slice enough onion to measure 1 cup [2 cups].
  • Zest and juice the lime.
  • Coarsely chop the cilantro.

In a medium bowl, combine the onion, cabbage, lime zest and juice, and cilantro. Season lightly with salt and pepper and toss to coat. Let stand, stirring occasionally, while you prepare the rest of the meal.

3

Prep and cook the fish

  • Pat the fish dry on a paper-towel-lined plate; season lightly with salt and pepper and half the Jamaican jerk seasoning, adding more if desired.

In a large frying pan over medium-high heat, warm 2 tablespoons [¼ cup] oil until hot but not smoking. Arrange the pollock pieces in an even layer and cook, undisturbed, until very lightly browned on one side, 1 to 2 minutes. Turn the fish and cook until opaque and flaky, about 1 minute. 

Serve

Transfer the rice and beans to individual bowls and top with the fish. Using a slotted spoon, remove the pickled vegetables from the brine. Garnish the fish with as many vegetables as you like and serve.
