step 1
Heat the oven to 220°C/200°C fan/gas mark 7. Add the chicken legs (1 kg) to a large roasting tray (approximately 41cm x 27cm), spoon over the jerk paste (1 jar) and toss to coat. Drizzle with a little olive oil, then turn the chicken skin-side up and roast for 30 minutes until golden.
step 2
Meanwhile, make the salsa. In a mixing bowl, combine the cabbage (1), lime zest and juice (1), mango (1), chilli (1) and spring onions (3) with a pinch of salt. Set aside.
step 3
After 30 minutes, remove the tray from the oven and remove the chicken thighs. Pour in the kidney beans (400 g), coconut milk (400 ml), rice (270 g), stock pot (1) and boiling water (200 ml). Stir to combine, then return the chicken to the tray skin‑side up.
step 4
Cover with foil and bake for a further 30 minutes, until the chicken is cooked through and the rice is tender.
step 5
Serve the traybake topped with the fresh mango salsa.
step 5 Serve the traybake topped with the fresh mango salsa.
