Steps

  1. ### Beans & Rice Skillet: A Quick and Delicious Meal
  2. #### Ingredients:
  3. - 1 cup white or brown rice (depending on your preference)
  4. - 2 cups of canned black beans, drained and rinsed
  5. - 1 medium onion, diced
  6. - 3 cloves garlic, minced
  7. - 1 red bell pepper, diced
  8. - 1 green bell pepper, diced
  9. - 2 tablespoons olive oil
  10. - 1 teaspoon cumin
  11. - 1/2 teaspoon chili powder (adjust to taste)
  12. - Salt and pepper to taste
  13. - Optional: 1 cup of cooked corn kernels or sliced zucchini for added nutrition and flavor
  14. #### Equipment:
  15. - Large skillet or Dutch oven
  16. - Measuring cups and spoons
  17. - Spatula
  18. ### Step-by-Step Guide:
  19. 1. **Rinse the Rice**: Start by rinsing the rice under cold water to remove any excess starch, which can make it mushy.
  20. 2. **Prepare Vegetables**: Dice the onion, bell peppers, and mince the garlic. This step ensures even cooking throughout the skillet beans and grains dish.
  21. 3. **Cook the Rice**: In a separate pan or microwave-safe bowl, cook the rice according to package instructions. Typically, this involves washing, soaking, and then cooking in water for 15-20 minutes until tender but slightly firm.
  22. 4. **Heat the Skillet**: Place your skillet over medium heat and add olive oil. Once heated, sauté the onions and garlic until they become translucent, about 3-5 minutes. This step adds depth to the flavor of the dish.
  23. 5. **Add Vegetables**: Add the diced bell peppers to the skillet and cook for another 5 minutes, stirring occasionally. The vegetables should start to soften but still retain their crunch.
  24. 6. **Include Protein and Spices**: Stir in the black beans with their liquid, cumin, chili powder, salt, and pepper. Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes until heated through. Adjust seasoning according to taste.
  25. 7. **Combine Rice and Beans**: Once the rice is fully cooked, gently fold it into the bean mixture using a spatula. Ensure that each grain of rice is coated with the flavorful mixture.
  26. 8. **Optional Additions**: If you're including corn or zucchini, add them now for an extra burst of flavor and nutrition. Cook until they are just tender.
  27. 9. **Final Touches**: Let the beans and grains sit on the heat for a couple of minutes to meld flavors further. This step helps in achieving that perfectly balanced taste.
  28. 10. **Serve Hot**: Serve your Beans & Rice Skillet hot, garnished with fresh cilantro or lime wedges if desired. Enjoy this nutritious and tasty meal!
