Red Beans and Rice
November 27th, 2009
We’ve been having this often around here and I wanted to post the recipe for my database.
2 c. cooked rice
2 cans red beans
1 small can fire-roasted green chiles
2 T. vegetable “Better than Bouillon” (mixed with 1 c. water)
2 T. butter
small onion, diced
1 large red pepper, diced
1 T. smoky paprika
1/2 t. cayenne
1/2 t. cumin
salt and pepper to taste
Melt butter in a saucepan and add onion. Saute on medium heat for 7 minutes, until the onions are translucent and slightly browned. Add in chiles and red pepper and cook for a couple minutes. Mix in the bouillon and spices and let simmer for a couple of minutes. Stir in the rice and let the mixture simmer for 5 minutes. Gently fold in beans.

Dacia, I just made this and it is delicious!!! I didn’t have any red peppers on hand, so I skipped them. I also had chicken broth, so I used a cup of that. It tasted delicious! Thanks for posting! You should post more recipes, I think….
