  • Heat ½ cup of neutral oil in a large heavy-bottomed pot over medium-high heat. Add the chicken thighs and sear on both sides until browned (about 3–4 minutes per side). Remove and set aside.
  • In the same pot, toss in the chopped onions and green onions. Sauté for about 2–3 minutes until fragrant. Stir in 2 tablespoons of tomato paste and cook for another minute to develop the flavor.
  • Add the peas and carrots, and mix well. Pour in the washed and drained basmati rice. Add the lemon juice and stir to combine.
  • Gently place the seared chicken thighs back on top of the rice. Pour in the chicken stock.
  • Reduce the heat to low. Cover with aluminum foil and the lid, cook until the rice is fluffy and the chicken is fully cooked through.
  • Fluff the rice, serve warm, and enjoy your flavorful one-pot jerk chicken and rice—Haitian style!
