Anweisungen

Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering. SautÃ© chopped bell pepper and onions until peppers are soft and onions are translucent, about 6-8 minutes. Add minced garlic and cook for 1 minute, until fragrant.

Add black beans, reserved cooking liquid, and Salsa Lizano, stirring to combine. Simmer for 5 minutes, until slightly thickened and little bit of the liquid is evaporated. Gently stir in cooked rice and cook until heated through and most of the liquid is absorbed, about 3-5 minutes.

Stir in chopped cilantro. Season to taste with additional Salsa Lizano, if desired, and serve.
