Cumin and Black Bean Rice


MAKES 4 SERVINGS

2 tablespoons vegetable oil

1/2 teaspoon cumin seeds

1 cup uncooked rice

2 cups chicken broth

1 (15.5-ounce) can black beans, rinsed and drained

Heat the oil in a medium saucepan over a medium-high heat. Add cumin seeds and cook until fragrant, about 1 minute. Add the rice and cook, stirring to coat for a minute before adding chicken broth. Bring to a boil and reduce heat to low. Cover and simmer for 15 to 20 minutes. Allow to rest for 5 minutes, fluff with a fork, add beans and serve immediately.
