Instructions

  1. Step 1: Rinse 1 cup black rice under cold water until water runs clear. Combine with 2 cups vegetable broth in a saucepan, bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 35 minutes until tender and liquid absorbed.
  2. Step 2: Heat 2 tbsp coconut oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Add 1/2 cup chopped bell peppers and 1/2 cup shredded carrots, sautéing for 5 minutes until edges are slightly caramelized and crisp-tender.
  3. Step 3: Stir 1 tsp turmeric into the cooked black rice while still hot, mixing until evenly distributed and golden.
  4. Step 4: Add 1 cup corn kernels to the bell pepper mixture and cook for 2 minutes until kernels are tender and bright yellow.
  5. Step 5: Toss cooked rice with the vegetable mixture, 2 tbsp lime juice, and 1 can drained chickpeas. Season with 1 tsp lime zest and 1/4 cup chopped cilantro just before serving.
