Ingredients
- 1 corn cob or ¾ cup frozen corn
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 green pepper diced
- 1 red pepper diced
- 1/4 red onion chopped, medium
- 2 garlic minced, cloves
- 1 jalapeño diced
- 1 cup long grain rice Mahatma brand
- ½ teaspoon chili powder
- 14 ounces vegetable broth or chicken broth
- 1 ounce can black beans rinsed and drained
- 1 .5-ounce can diced tomatoes
- avocado diced
- cilantro leaves for garnish
Instructions
- Shuck the corn and remove the silks. Place an ear of corn right on a burner. Light your gas stove and turn heat to medium-high. Roast the corn over the gas flame, turning every minute or so until the kernels are charred in various places all around the corn.
- Remove corn from heat and let cool.
- Use a sharp knife to cut off the corn kernels and set aside.
- In a large Dutch oven or stockpot, heat oil over medium-high heat; sauté peppers and onion 3 minutes. Add garlic and jalapeño; cook and stir 2 minutes.
- Stir in rice, chili powder, and broth; bring to a boil. Reduce heat; simmer, covered, until rice is tender, about 15 minutes.
- Stir in corn, black beans, and tomatoes; cook, covered, until heated through.
- Serve warm with diced avocado and cilantro.
Notes
- If you would like to add meat to this dish, you can slice up grilled bratwurst or cubes of grilled chicken for a heartier meal.
- This dish can be made with Mahatma Brown Rice instead of white rice, but you will need to increase the cook time from 15 minutes to 35 to 40 minutes.
