Rice & Peas is a comforting Caribbean classic: fluffy long-grain rice cooked in creamy coconut milk with tender red kidney beans (or pigeon peas), seasoned with aromatic scallions, garlic, thyme, and a hit of Scotch bonnet for authentic warmth. The result is richly savory with a subtle sweetness and island-spiced depth that pairs perfectly with jerk chicken, curried goat, or simple fried plantains. Easy to make but full of character, Rice & Peas is a vibrant, satisfying staple that brings Caribbean flavor to any meal.
