How Do I Make Black Beans and Rice?

Here is how you make Black Beans and Rice:

In a nonstick skillet, over medium heat, heat olive oil. Add onions and chilies, saute-ing for about 6 or so minutes. Drain the beans reserving about 1/2 cup liquid (I actually keep more like a cup of liquid). Add the beans with the reserved liquid to the onions and chilies. Cook uncovered for about 20 to 30 minutes (watch carefully for drying, stir it occasionally), or until 1/2 of the liquid is absorbed. Then season with cumin and cayenne. In the meantime simmer the rice and garlic in the chicken broth, covered for 20 minutes (if using brown rice, simmer for 45 minutes). Ladle black beans mixture over rice and serve.1/2 cup equals a serving. Number of Servings: 14Recipe submitted by SparkPeople user ELAMACHE.
