1 x 15 oz. can black beans, drained and rinsed

1 x 10 oz. can Rotel diced tomatoes and chilies

1 x medium sweet bell pepper seeded and chopped

1 x small yellow onion chopped

1 cup chicken broth or any broth

2 cups uncooked rice

1 tsp. chili powder

1/2 tsp. cumin

1/2 tsp. salt

1/4 tsp. ground black pepper

1.5 lb. meat of choice sliced into 1/2 inch pieces

Place a wide, high-sided skillet or pot over high heat. Add the beans, Rotel, broth, bell pepper, onion, rice, chili powder, cumin, salt, and black pepper. Stir to combine. Cover the pot.

Bring liquid to a boil, then reduce to a simmer. Cook for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally.

Add the sliced meat. Cover. Continue to simmer until the rice is tender and most of the liquid is absorbed (about 10 minutes for white rice).

Remove the pot from the heat. Uncover and let it rest for 5 minutes before serving
