Ingredients
-
3 cups basmati rice
-
1 tablespoon chili powder
-
2 teaspoons kosher salt, or to taste
-
2 teaspoons ground cumin
-
1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
-
¼ teaspoon cayenne pepper (Optional)
-
¼ teaspoon dried oregano
-
¼ cup olive oil
-
2 (15 ounce) cans kidney beans, rinsed and drained
-
1 (16 ounce) jar tomato salsa
-
2 cups chicken broth
Directions
-
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
-
Pour rice into a casserole dish; season with chili powder, salt, cumin, black pepper, cayenne pepper, and oregano. Pour in olive oil and stir until rice is thoroughly coated. Add beans, salsa, and broth; stir until evenly combined. Cover very tightly with heavy-duty aluminum foil.
-
Bake in the preheated oven until rice is tender, about 1 hour and 10 minutes. Remove the foil; taste and adjust seasoning if necessary. Fluff with a fork and serve hot.
Chef's Notes
You can use any long-grain white rice for basmati, paprika for chili powder, melted butter for olive oil, water for chicken broth, and any type of canned beans — pintos would be great, as would black beans.
Once you unwrap the dish from the oven, make sure the rice is fully cooked before fluffing it with a fork. If it's not, re-cover and continue baking until tender.
