Cuban Black Bean and Rice Skillet

Ingredients

  • 1 cup Schnucks long-grain white rice
  • 4 Schnucks 6-inch taco-style flour tortillas
  • 1 tbsp. Schnucks olive oil
  • 1 (12 oz.) bag Full Circle frozen organic pepper strips and onions
  • 1 (15.25 oz.) can Schnucks black beans, drained and rinsed
  • 1 (10 oz.) can Schnucks Mexican-style diced tomatoes with green chilies
  • 1 cup Schnucks frozen super sweet whole-kernel gold corn
  • 1 tsp. Schnucks cumin
  • cilantro leaves, for garnish

Instructions

  1. Cook rice according to package directions.
  2. Preheat oven to 375 degrees and coat a 9x9-inch baking dish with cooking spray. Lightly coat tortillas with cooking spray. Turn over a muffin tin and tent tortillas over raised cups.
  3. In a large skillet, heat oil over medium. Add pepper-onion blend and cook until softened, 3–4 minutes. Stir in remaining ingredients; cook until heated through, 2–3 minutes more. Fold in cooked rice and, if desired, season with salt and pepper. Spread mixture into prepared baking dish.
  4. Transfer both baking dish and inverted muffin tin to oven. Bake tortilla cups until crispy, 8–10 minutes. Remove from oven, then continue baking pepper-onion mixture until slightly golden, 7–8 minutes more.
  5. Remove tortillas from muffin tin and serve filled with pepper-onion mixture. Serve garnished with cilantro.

Chef Tip: Stir in shredded rotisserie chicken, cooked lean ground turkey or cooked chorizo when you add the beans for an easy protein upgrade. For a plant-based option, fold in sautéed tofu or tempeh. No extra prep, just more protein power!
