This recipe is tried and true and is an absolute favorite in my household! Especially with my boys. I used to make it with white rice and this year I switched over to brown rice because it’s whole grain and has so many health benefits. And you know what? They didn’t even notice. I love it so much better, too! So without further ado here it is…
Perfect Brown Rice and Beans
1 overflowing cup of brown rice
2 cups water
¼ cup canned black beans
1 packet of Goya Sazon con Culantro y Achiote
1 pat butter
1 tbsp chopped garlic
¼ cup Extra Virgin Olive Oil
Salt to taste
In one saucepan, boil 2 cups of water, add the rice to the boiling water and pat of butter, stir, lower heat and cover until all the water is absorbed (about 30 minutes). In another saucepan brown the garlic in the olive oil and set aside. When rice is fully cooked, add it to the garlic and olive oil. Add the packet of Sazon and stir until the rice is fully coated. Add the black beans in last and combine. Voila! You have Perfect Brown Rice and Beans!
