GALLO PINTO (COSTA RICAN RICE AND BEANS)



Gallo Pinto (Costa Rican Rice and Beans) image

I found this recipe in a copy of Vegetarian Times. Gallo Pinto translates as "painted rooster", and is a dish eaten by many Costa Ricans almost every day. The addition of ginger and Worcestershire adds a quite unique flavor to this dish.

Categories     Lunch/Snacks

Time 15m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

2 tablespoons canola oil
1 medium onion, finely chopped
2 garlic cloves, minced
3 cups cooked white rice
2 cups cooked black beans, drained and rinsed
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1 teaspoon ground coriander
1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
2 -3 tablespoons vegetarian worcestershire sauce (regular can be used as well)
salt & freshly ground black pepper, to taste
fresh cilantro (optional)
sliced green onion (optional)

Steps:

  • Heat oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
  • Add onion and sauté until it just begins to soften and turns color.
  • Add garlic and sauté for about 5 minutes, or until onion is golden.
  • Add spices and Worcestershire, and stir into onion and garlic.
  • (The first time I made this, I was afraid to add the full 3 Tbsp of Worcestershire, but the addition of the rice balances the flavor out).
  • Next, add the beans and then the rice.
  • Combine the rice and beans evenly and cook until mixture is heated through.
  • Add salt and pepper to taste and serve hot.
  • Garnish with some chopped cilantro or green onions if you prefer.

Categories     HarperCollins     Breakfast     Bean     Rice     Kale     Avocado     Lime Juice     Bell Pepper     Jalapeño     Quick and Healthy     Healthy     Quick & Easy     Vegetarian     Vegan     Wheat/Gluten-Free

Number Of Ingredients 12

1/2 yellow onion, cut into 1/4-inch dice (about 1 cup)
1 medium red bell pepper, cored, seeded, and cut into 1/2-inch dice (about 1 cup)
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1/2 jalapeño pepper, seeded and minced (optional)
1/2 bunch kale, stems removed and discarded, leaves shredded (about 2 cups)
2 cups cooked short- or long-grain brown rice
1 (15-ounce) can black beans, rinsed and drained (about 1 1/2 cups)
3 tablespoons finely chopped fresh cilantro
Sea salt
1 avocado, cut into 1/2-inch dice
1 lime, cut into wedges

Steps:

  • Combine the onion, bell pepper, cumin, garlic powder, and jalapeño (if you’re using it) in a large sauté pan. Add 1/2 cup water and sauté the vegetables over medium heat for about 10 minutes, until they are tender, stirring occasionally and adding 1 to 2 more tablespoons water as needed to prevent the vegetables from sticking to the pan. Add the kale, rice, beans, and 1 cup water and cook over medium heat for 3 to 5 minutes, folding the ingredients, until the kale has wilted and the liquid has been absorbed.
  • Add half of the cilantro and salt to taste and stir to combine. Garnish with the remaining cilantro and serve with diced avocado on top and a lime wedge.
