Preparation
1
Cook rice

  • Before starting, lightly oil the grill. While you prep, preheat the grill to medium (approx. 400°F).
  • Wash and dry all produce. 
  • To a medium pot, add 1 1/4 cup (2 1/2 cups) water and 1/8 tsp (1/4 tsp) salt. Cover and bring to a boil over high.
  • To the boiling water, stir in rice, corn, 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) butter and half the Carribean Spice Blend, then reduce heat to low.
  • Cover and cook for 18-20 min, until rice is tender and water is absorbed. 
  • Remove from heat. Set aside, still covered.
  • Fluff rice with a fork.

2
Marinate pork

  • Meanwhile, pat pork dry with paper towels. Season with remaining Carribean Spice Blend, salt and pepper.
  • In a medium bowl, coat pork with half the jerk sauce, turning to coat. Set aside to marinate.

3
Prep ingredients

  • Meanwhile, core, then cut peppers into quarters.
  • On a plate, drizzle peppers with 1/2 tbsp (1 tbsp) oil. Season with salt and pepper, then toss to coat.
  • Peel, then cut kiwi into 1/4-inch pieces.
  • Thinly slice green onion.
  • Zest, then juice half the lime. Cut remaining lime into wedges.

4
Make salsa and lime mayo

  • To another medium bowl, add kiwi, half the green onions, half the lime zest, half the lime juice and 1/2 tbsp (1 tbsp) oil. Season with salt and pepper. Toss to combine.
  • In a small bowl, combine mayo, remaining lime zest and lime juice.

5
Grill pork

  • Bring pork, peppers and a clean plate to the grill.
  • Add peppers to the grill. Close lid and grill for 3-4 min per side until grill-marked and tender. Transfer to the plate to cool slightly.
  • Meanwhile, add pork to the grill. 
  • Close lid and grill for 4-6 min per side, basting with the remaining jerk sauce during the last min of each side, until cooked through.** 
  • Transfer pork to the plate.

6
Finish and serve

  • Cut grilled peppers into 1/4-inch pieces, then add to the bowl with kiwi salsa. Toss to coat.
  • Slice pork.
  • Divide rice mixture, salsa and pork between plates.
  • Drizzle with lime mayo.
  • Sprinkle with remaining green onions.
  • Squeeze a lime wedge over top, if you like.
