In a bowl, mix together jerk seasoning, olive oil, lime juice, minced garlic, and salt. Rub this mixture all over the leg quarters and let marinate for at least 1 hour, preferably overnight in the refrigerator.

Prepare the Marinade

Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Place marinated chicken in a baking dish and bake for 45-50 minutes or until fully cooked and juices run clear.

Cook the Chicken

In a large pot, heat a little oil over medium heat and sauté onion, bell pepper, and garlic until softened.

Sauté Vegetables

Add rice, chicken broth, cumin, and salt to the pot. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for about 20 minutes or until rice is cooked and liquid is absorbed.

Cook the Rice

Stir in the black beans and heat through for an additional 5 minutes.

Add Beans

In a pot of boiling salted water, cook macaroni according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.

Cook Pasta

In the same pot, melt butter over medium heat. Stir in flour and cook for 1 minute. Gradually whisk in milk and bring to a simmer. Stir in cheese until melted and smooth, then add cooked macaroni. Season with salt and pepper.

Make Cheese Sauce

Peel and slice the plantains diagonally into about 1-inch thick slices.
