Time 1h10m

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 17

3 teaspoons olive oil
1 medium onion, diced
1/2 red pepper, diced
1 large carrot, diced or shredded
1 clove garlic, minced
1/2 tablespoon chili powder
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1 (15-ounce) can whole or chopped tomatoes
1 cup broth (vegetable, chicken, tomato juice or water)
1 (28-ounce) can black beans
1 ear corn, kernels removed
Coarse salt and freshly ground black pepper
Perfect Microwaveable Rice, recipe follows
2 cups long grain rice
3 1/2 cups water or stock
1 1/2 teaspoons butter or oil
Salt and freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • In a large pot, heat the olive oil over medium high heat. Add the onions, peppers, carrot, and garlic, cook stirring often, until vegetables are tender, about 5 minutes. Add chili powder and cumin, and cook 1 to 2 minutes more or until they smell delicious.
  • Add the tomatoes, broth, black beans and corn to the pot with the vegetables. Bring to a boil, reduce to a simmer. Cook 10 to 20 minutes, until flavors are well combined. Taste and adjust seasonings with salt and pepper.
  • Serve over rice.
  • Place all ingredients in a large glass measuring or any microwave safe bowl. The rice expands during cooking, so be sure to choose a container that is large enough. Microwave on high, uncovered, for 10 minutes. Microwave on medium-low, uncovered, for 15 minutes. Do not stir the rice at any time during the cooking process. Season with salt and fluff with a fork just before serving.

1 cup long grain white rice
2 cups chicken broth or water
1 package (10 ounces) frozen petite peas
3/4 cup (2 ounces) grated sharp cheddar or Parmesan cheese
1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
1/8 teaspoon cayenne pepper or 2 to 3 drops Tabasco sauce
Salt and freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • In a medium size saucepan combine rice with broth and bring the liquid to a boil over medium heat. Cover and simmer until the rice is almost tender, about 15 minutes. Stir in the peas and simmer, covered 5 minutes longer. At this point you can serve half to the kids, garnished with some cheese. If you are making this for adult tastes only stir in Worcestershire, cayenne and grated cheese. Remove the pan from the heat and continue to stir until the cheese is entirely melted. Season to taste with salt and pepper and serve immediately before the dish gets gummy.
  • To reheat leftovers and change the flavor a bit, layer the rice in a baking dish and top with some tomato sauce. Cover and reheat in a microwave or regular oven until very hot.

Tips:

  • Choose the right rice. Medium-grain rice, such as arborio or carnaroli, is best for risotto because it absorbs liquid well and holds its shape.
  • Toast the rice before cooking. This helps to develop the rice's flavor and prevent it from sticking together.
  • Use a heavy-bottomed pot. This will help to distribute the heat evenly and prevent the rice from scorching.
  • Add the liquid gradually. This will help the rice to absorb the liquid evenly and prevent it from becoming mushy.
  • Stir the rice frequently. This will help to prevent the rice from sticking together and ensure that it cooks evenly.
  • Season the risotto to taste. Salt, pepper, and Parmesan cheese are all common seasonings for risotto.
  • Serve the risotto immediately. Risotto is best served hot and fresh.

Conclusion:

Risotto is a delicious and versatile dish that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. With its creamy texture and rich flavor, risotto is a perfect meal for a special occasion or a weeknight dinner.
