Instructions
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 tilapia
- Pat the tilapia dry on a paper-towel-lined plate; season lightly with salt, pepper, and half the Jamaican jerk seasoning, adding more if desired.
In a large frying pan over medium heat, warm 1 to 2 tablespoons oil until hot but not smoking. Arrange the tilapia in an even layer and cook, undisturbed, until very lightly browned on one side, 3 to 4 minutes. Turn the tilapia and cook until opaque and flaky, 3 to 4 more minutes.
Serve
Transfer the rice and beans to individual bowls and flake the tilapia over the top. Using a slotted spoon, remove the pickled vegetables from the brine. Garnish the tilapia with as many vegetables as you like and serve.
