Stewed Beans with Brown Rice
Ingredients
- 2 can pinto beans, rinsed and drained
- 1 tsp sazon (find a vegetable based one either in the international aisle or by the company eatloisa)
- 1/2 tsp smoked paprika
- 1/2 tsp garlic powder
- 1 tsp dried oregano
- 1 red onion, diced
- 1 can rotel (or store brand diced tomatoes with green chili peppers)
- 2 tsp capers (optional)
- 2 cups veggie broth
Preparation
Add onion to a pot and stir until fragrant.
Add in seasonings and a splash of water and sauté until fragrance developed, about 2 minutes.
Add in beans, tomatoes and capers. Stir to incorporate well and add in veggie broth.
Bring mixture to a simmer and reduce heat to low.
Stir every few minutes to avoid sticking to the bottom of the pan and allow to cook for 15-20 minutes.
With the back of a wooden spoon, lightly mash beans to thicken broth.
Feel free to adjust liquid more to your liking.
Remove from stove and stir.
Serve with rice and extra veggies. Makes about 4 servings.
If cooking in Instapot, set manual to 17 minutes with all ingredients listed.
