This recipe has been one of our favorites for a long time. I still hear you guys talk about it and ask for the recipe. So here it is. And of course for bigger crowds you should double or triple this recipe, this one serves about 4-6.
1 C. uncooked Jasmine or Basmati Rice
1 Can coconut milk
1 1/4 C. Chicken stock
4 strips of bacon, diced
4 green onions
1 large clove garlic, minced
1 tsp. Cumin
1 Jalapeno, seeded and chopped
1/4 C. unsweetend coconut
1 can black beans, rinsed and drained
salt and pepper
Cook the rice in the chicken stock and 2/4 C. of the coconut milk. In a small frying pan saute the bacon till brown, remove bacon leaving all dripings in pan. Add to bacon fat green onions, garlic, jalapeno and cumin, saute until garlic is cooked but not browned, about 4 min. Add the black beans to the pot with the rice stir, now add the green onion mixture including all bacon drippings from the pan, remaining coconut milk, shredded coconut, bacon, and salt and pepper to taste. Mix well and adjust seasonings as desired, sometimes I like more cumin or more shredded coconut etc. Serve hot and enjoy!
