Jerk Chicken Bowls with Coconut Rice
Serves 410 mins prep20 mins cook
These bowls are everything I wanted: super fresh, light but filling, and full of bold flavor. The coconut rice with sweet mango and spicy jerk chicken is the kind of combo that just works. It’s tropical, it’s colorful, and it’s one of those meals that makes you feel like you’re on vacation—even if you’re just eating it at your kitchen counter between soccer practices and laundry loads.
