BAHAMIAN PEAS AND RICE

Provided by Sunny Anderson

Categories     side-dish

Time 1h10m

Yield 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

1/3 cup olive oil
6 strips bacon, chopped
1 cup chopped Vidalia or sweet onion
1 green bell pepper, seeded and chopped
1 celery stalk, finely chopped
5 or 6 sprigs fresh thyme, leaves stripped
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
2 garlic cloves, grated on a rasp or finely minced
2 cups rice, rinsed in a sieve until the water runs clear
One 15-ounce can black-eyed peas, drained and rinsed
4 Roma tomatoes, chopped
One 8-ounce can tomato sauce
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
1 habanero pepper, pierced with the tip of a knife

Steps:

  • In a large saucepan or Dutch oven over medium-high heat, combine the oil, bacon, onion, bell pepper, celery, thyme leaves, a pinch of salt, and a few grinds of pepper. Cook, stirring, until the bacon is crisped and the onion is tender and fragrant, about 10 minutes.
  • Add the garlic and rice and toast the rice until it has a nutty, popcorn-like scent, about 10 minutes more.
  • Stir in the peas, tomatoes, tomato sauce, Worcestershire, habanero pepper, and 3 cups water. Bring the pot to a boil, and then reduce to a low simmer and cover. Cook until the rice absorbs the liquid, 35 to 40 minutes. Try to avoid lifting the lid until the 30-minute mark, as the steam helps cook the rice.
  • Serve warm.
