- 3 tablespoons - olive oil
- 1 cups - rice
- 2 cups - water
- 1 tablespoons - butter
- 1/2 teaspoons - basil
- 1 cans - black beans
- 1 pounds - uncooked large shrimp 41-50 count
- 1/4 cups - white rice flour
- 1/3 teaspoons - cayenne pepper
- 1/2 teaspoons - black pepper
- pinchs - salt
- 1/2 teaspoons - thyme
- 1 cups - chicken broth
- 1/3 cups - minced garlic
- 1 cups - Budweiser or Bud Light
- 4 tablespoons - Worcestershire sauce
- 1/2 cups - black molasses
- 1 1/2 teaspoons - McCormick Perfect Pinch Caribbean Jerk Seasoning
- 1/4 cups - brown sugar
- 1/4 cups - KC Masterpiece Marinade Caribbean Jerk
- 2 tablespoons - butter
Directions:
1. For Mango Salsa:
Dice the mango, tomatoes, and the peach into tiny pieces. Transfer them to a bowl then use a pair of scissors to add some freshly cut parsley to the mixture.
2. For Grilled / Fried Plantains:
Peel and slice the plantains into thirds horizontally then cut them into fourths vertically to form finger sized slices. Saute in a pan with a little bit of olive oil on medium to high heat watching them closely so they don't burn. Turn heat down and put the lid on to let them finish off.
3. Seasoned White Rice:
Put 1 cup of rice and two cups of water into a rice cooker if you have one and set them to cook (or cook rice on stovetop according to package directions). Once done transfer the rice to a large bowl and add 1 tablespoon of butter. Mix thoroughly. Finally, add a half teaspoon of basil for taste.
4. Black Beans:
Heat the beans in a pan for 5-7 minutes until sauce thickens.
5. Jamaican Black Pepper Shrimp:
Take 1/4 of a cup of white rice flour and mix it with 1/3 teaspoon of cayenne pepper, 1/2 teaspoon of black pepper, a pinch of salt, and 1/2 teaspoon of thyme. Stir mixture and pour over shrimp to coat. You do not need to use the entire mixture - just enough to coat the shrimp to your liking.
Next, in a large bowl, mix together the chicken broth, minced garlic, beer, Worcestershire, molasses and jerk seasoning; then transfer this mixture into a large sauce pan. Stir for approximately 5 minutes on high heat with no lid.
Add the brown sugar, Caribbean Jerk Marinade, and butter to the pan, stirring on high for another 5 minutes with no lid. Then add the shrimp.
Continue to monitor on high heat for another 5 minutes, then set heat to medium and cook for another 5 minutes while sauce thickens.
Put the dish together and garnish with more fresh parsley.
