While the chicken cools, heat a Dutch oven over medium-high heat and spray with nonstick cooking spray. Add the onion and carrots and saute until tender, about 5 minutes. Add 1-2 tablespoons of Jerk seasoning (to taste) and saute 1 minute. Add the tomatoes, coconut milk and chicken broth and bring to a boil.
