Easy One‑Pan Brown Rice and Bean Skillet

Recipe by Eileen

  • Yield4-6 1x

This Easy One‑Pan Brown Rice and Bean Skillet is a healthy and quick dish to add to your food rotation.  It is simple to prepare and delicious served as a side dish or a main with the addition of a protein (a must for my husband the meat lover). 

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 medium onion diced
  • 1 small red bell pepper, diced
  • 1 small zucchini, seeds removed, diced (optional)
  • 1 tbsp. olive oil
  • ½ tsp. Sazon seasoning
  • 1 8.8-ounce package steamed brown rice (I use Tasty Bites or Uncle Ben’s)
  • 1 10-ounce can regular Rotel Tomatoes with green chilies (use mild for less heat)
  • 1 15-ounce can black beans, rinsed and drained
  • 1 cup low sodium vegetable or chicken broth

Instructions

  1. Heat olive oil in a 12 inch non-stick skillet.
  2. Add onions, peppers and zucchini if using. Saute for 10 minutes till vegetables have softened.
  3. Add Sazon seasoning and saute for 1 minute till fragrant.
  4. Add brown rice, breaking up clumps and coat with vegetable mixture. Add a little more olive oil if the pan seems dry.
  5. Add broth, Rotel tomatoes with green chilies and black beans. Cover partially and simmer for 10 minutes till most of the liquid has been absorbed.
  6. Serve while hot with toppings such as cheese,  chopped green onions, cilantro, or avocado.
