Let’s get cooking! Follow these steps for a delicious meal:

1. Pat the chicken thighs dry and coat them with the jerk seasoning. Let them sit for about 10 minutes to absorb the flavors.
2. In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the chicken thighs and cook for 5-7 minutes on each side until golden brown. Remove and set aside.
3. In the same skillet, add the onion, garlic, and red bell pepper. Sauté for 3-4 minutes until the onion is translucent.
4. Stir in the rice, ensuring it’s well-coated with the veggies and oil.
5. Pour in the chicken broth and coconut milk, bringing the mixture to a gentle simmer.
6. Return the chicken to the skillet, nestling it into the rice mixture. Sprinkle with thyme, salt, and pepper.
7. Cover the skillet and reduce the heat to low. Cook for about 20 minutes, or until the rice is tender and the chicken is cooked through.
8. Fluff the rice with a fork, garnish with fresh cilantro, and serve hot.

Tip: Keep an eye on the liquid levels. If it looks a little dry, adding a splash of chicken broth can work wonders!
