Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 28

2 tablespoons olive oil
1 onions, finely chopped
1 green bell pepper, finely chopped
2 cloves garlic, minced
4 ½ cups water
2 (16 ounce) cans black beans, rinsed and drained
2 cups brown rice
1 teaspoon ground cumin
½ teaspoon salt
¼ teaspoon smoked paprika
1 bay leaf
ground black pepper to taste
2 cups chopped fresh mango
1 cup chopped red bell pepper
⅔ cup chopped green onion
¼ cup chopped cilantro
1 jalapeno pepper, seeded and minced
2 tablespoons fresh lime juice
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 pound lean ground beef
1 tablespoon chili powder
1 ½ teaspoons ground cumin
¼ teaspoon garlic powder
¼ teaspoon onion powder
¼ teaspoon red pepper flakes
¼ teaspoon dried oregano
¼ teaspoon paprika
1 (8 ounce) package flour tortillas

Steps:

  • Heat olive oil in a saucepan over medium-low heat. Cook onion and green bell pepper in hot oil until softened, about 5 minutes; add garlic and cook another 3 minutes. Stir water, black beans, rice, cumin, salt, and paprika with the onion mixture; add bay leaf. Bring the liquid to a boil, cover saucepan with a tight-fitting lid, reduce heat to low, and cook until the rice is tender and the moisture is absorbed, 50 to 60 minutes. Remove and discard bay leaf.
  • While rice cooks, mix mango, red bell pepper, green onion, cilantro, jalapeno pepper, lime juice, and olive oil together in a large bowl; refrigerate at least 30 minutes.
  • Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Cook and stir beef with chili powder, cumin, garlic powder, onion powder, red pepper flakes, oregano, and paprika in the hot skillet until browned and crumbly, 5 to 7 minutes; drain and discard grease.
  • Stir mango salsa before serving along with the black beans and rice, seasoned ground beef, tortillas, and your preferred taco fillings.
