This is Tarrence's speciality and it's incredibly versitile. You can pretty much use whatever is in the fridge, and mix and match ingredients to make it your own.

1 can of black beans (16 oz can = 1 1/2 cup dried)

Enough rice for the amount of people you're serving (we usually use brown rice, but you can use whatever rice you like)

1-2 chicken breasts per person, diced

1/2 onion

Red and/or Green peppers

Fresh chopped cilantro

1/2 bottle of Goya Sofritos ( found in Latin section of your grocery store. If you can't find it, click here for the recipe)

2 packets of Goya Sazon

Spices: Cumin, Chili Pepper, Crushed Red Pepper, Pepper, Salt, Oregano, Bay leaves (not whole), Garlic, Adobo spices

(Adobo spices =
4 cloves garlic
1 teaspoon dried oregano
1 teaspoon peppercorns
1/2 teaspoon paprika
1 teaspoon salt
ground with motar and pestle until a paste)


Olive Oil

Avacado

1. Pour beans into saucepan, with a little water. Add 1 packet of Goya Sazon and cook on low heat

2. Heat olive oil in pan, add diced chicken, cook over medium heat. Add Sazon packet and Sofritos. Add spices - feel free to add any spices you like here. You can't really go wrong.

3. Cook rice as directed.

4. Once chicken is cooked through, add peppers, onions and cilantro. Cook for a few minutes, but don't let the peppers get soft.

5. Add beans and rice to the chicken, stir and serve with diced avacado on top!
