Ingredients:

1 cup uncooked brown rice

2 teaspoons olive oil

1 cup red onion, chopped, divided

1 medium banana pepper, cubanelle or other sweet pepper, diced (about ½ cup)

1 ½ Tablespoon minced garlic

1 teaspoon ground cumin

1 (15-ounce) can black beans

1 teaspoon salt

1 Tablespoon red wine vinegar

4 Tablespoons cilantro, fresh, chopped, divided

1 medium lime cut into wedges

Directions:

Cook rice according to package directions.

Meanwhile, heat oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add all but 1 Tablespoon of onion and all of the pepper; cook, stirring occasionally, until tender, about 7 minutes. Add garlic, cumin and oregano; cook, stirring, until fragrant, about 30 seconds.

Stir in beans and their liquid, 2 Tablespoons of water and salt; bring to a simmer. Reduce heat to low and simmer for flavors to blend, about 5 minutes. Remove from heat; stir in vinegar and 2 Tablespoons of cilantro.

To serve, spoon beans over rice; sprinkle with remaining onion and remaining cilantro; squeeze fresh lime juice over top.
