My husband comes from a Cuban family, so we often eat a combination of black beans and rice paired with a variation of protein. I love my hubby's black beans! Tonight we made the beans and rice and paired it with 'Bayou Pork'.
Beans
You will need:
Goya black beans
Red Wine Vinaigrette
Basil Leaves
Cumin
Salt
Always start with Goya black beans. You can get them at the ordinary grocery, though sometimes only one store in your area will carry it... for example, the Kroger here doesn't have them, but Publix does.
Cook the beans in a small sauce pan. Add a few squirts of a red wine vinaigrette, two basil leaves, a dash of cumin, and a dash of salt. Stir beans periodically. We start the beans first and time them based on how long it takes the rice to cook. We cook our rice in a rice cooker.
Bayou Pork
You will need:
1 tsp paprika
1/2 tsp cumin
1/2 tsp black pepper
1/2 tsp cayenne pepper
1/2 tsp rubbed dried sage
1/2 tsp garlic salt
1 1/2 tsp extra-virgin olive oil
4 pork chops
This recipe is a quick, four step process! Hooray for easy meals!
Step 1: Combine all seasonings in a shallow bowl.
Step 2: Place pork chops in the bowl, turning over so each side gets coated in the seasoning
Step 3: Heat olive oil over high heat
Step 4: Turn burner to medium heat and cook the pork chops for about 10 minutes, turning over half way through.
The pork is under 90 calories per serving. Don't judge me for the lack of greens in this dinner... oops.
