I Made Authentic Jamaican Rice & Peas

Soak the dried kidney beans overnight, then drain and rinse them.

In a large pot, combine the soaked beans, 4 cups of water, and crushed garlic. Bring to a boil and simmer until the beans are tender.

Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).

In a baking dish, combine the cooked beans, rice, chopped onion (if using), scallions, thyme, whole Scotch bonnet pepper, and coconut milk.

Add salt and all-purpose seasoning (if using) to taste, then stir to combine.

Cover the baking dish with foil and bake for about 30-40 minutes, or until the rice is cooked and has absorbed the liquid.

Remove from the oven and let it sit for a few minutes before serving.
