Easy Rice and Beans

This colorful rice and bean dish is flavorful enough on its own or is a great side dish! Fresh bell pepper, savory garlic, and spicy red onion and jalapeño pair with our zesty and bright Key Lime Infused Olive Oil and Mojito Balsamic.

Ingredients: 

• 2 Tbsp Key Lime Infused Olive Oil
• 1 Small Yellow Onion, small diced
• 1 Red Bell Pepper, diced small
• 1 Jalapeño, diced
• 4 Cloves Garlic, minced
• 1 Tbsp Mojo Citrus Seasoning Salt, freshly ground
• 1 Tbsp Mojito White Barrel Aged Balsamic, plus more for finishing
• 1 cup Long Grain White Rice, rinsed well
• 14.5 oz Canned Black Beans, rinsed
• ¼ cup Cilantro, chopped
• ¼ cup Green Onions, chopped

Directions: 

1. In a large skillet, heat the Key Lime Olive Oil over medium and add the onions, bell pepper, jalapeño, and garlic. Sauté until onions are translucent, about 6 minutes.
2. Season with Mojo Citrus Seasoning Salt and Mojito Balsamic. Add in rinsed rice and stir, let cook until rice begins to toast, about 5 minutes.
3. Add in chicken stock and black beans and bring to a boil. Turn heat to low and cover with a tight fitting lid, let sit until rice is tender, about 15-20 minutes. 
4. Fluff with fork and stir in cilantro. Top with green onions and a drizzle of the Mojito Balsamic. Enjoy!
