Ingredients

1 cup chopped onion

1 cup chopped green bell pepper

2 teaspoons chopped garlic

2 teaspoons ground cumin

1 teaspoon dried thyme leaves

1/2 teaspoon crushed red pepper

1 bay leaf

1 Tablespoon olive oil

1 cup rice

1 can (14-1/2 ounces) diced tomatoes with green chilies

2 cans (15 ounces) black beans

2 cups water

1 Tablespoon apple cider vinegar

1/2 teaspoon salt (optional)

1/2 teaspoon black pepper

Directions

Saute onion, bell pepper, garlic, cumin, thyme, crushed red pepper, and bay leaf in olive oil until onion is tender, about 5 minutes.

Stir in rice, tomatoes, black beans, water, vinegar, salt, and pepper

Heat to boiling. Reduce heat and simmer, covered, until rice is tender, about 20 minutes. Let stand 5 minutes before serving.

I like chopped fresh onions as the garnish and maybe some cilantro leaves chopped up quite fine. Don't skip the vinegar, it adds so much to the dish.

I think I will serve this the next time with my Roast Pork Crusted in Adobo! I usually make rice with thyme, cranberry beans, or black beans. But this will be a wonderful change. Thanks for posting!

Mmm this is one of my favourite dishes, except I use brown rice for the nutrition boost. Sometimes I throw in some barley too. Tasty any way, I say!
