Cooking Steps
- Add rice and half the garlic salt to the boiling water.
- Reduce heat to low. Cover and cook, until rice is tender and liquid is absorbed, 12-14 min.
- Remove from heat. Set aside, still covered.
- Meanwhile, quarter zucchini lengthwise, then cut into 1/2-inch pieces.
- Add zucchini and 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) oil to a parchment-lined baking sheet. Season with remaining garlic salt and pepper, then toss to coat.
- Roast in the middle of the oven, stirring halfway through, until tender, 12-14 min.
- Meanwhile, pat chicken dry with paper towels.
- Add chicken, Jerk Spice Blend and 1/2 tbsp (1 tbsp) oil to another parchment-lined baking sheet. Toss to coat, then arrange in a single layer.
- Roast in the top of the oven, 8 min.
- Carefully remove baking sheet from the oven, then dollop jerk sauce over chicken.
- Return to the top of the oven and continue to roast until cooked through, 4-6 min.**
- Meanwhile, core, then cut pepper into 1/2-inch pieces.
- Heat a large non-stick pan over medium-high heat.
