Ingredients

  • 1 tbsp M&S olive oil
  • 1 M&S onion, diced
  • 2 M&S garlic cloves, crushed or grated
  • 3 M&S mixed peppers, diced
  • 1 tbsp M&S chipotle paste
  • 2 tbsp M&S fajita seasoning
  • 250g pack M&S quick cook long grain rice
  • 400g tin M&S Italian chopped tomatoes
  • 1 M&S vegetable stock pot
  • 430g jar M&S black beans, drained
  • 100g M&S mature cheddar, grated

Method

  • Step 1

    Heat a large, deep non-stick pan over a medium-high heat with the oil. Add the onion, garlic and peppers with a pinch of salt and cook for 5–7 mins, stirring occasionally, until softened.

  • Step 2

    Stir in the chipotle paste (skip or halve the quantity if you prefer less heat) and fajita seasoning until the veg is coated.

  • Step 3

    Add the rice, tomatoes, vegetable stock pot, 400ml water and black beans. Mix well, bring to a simmer and cook for 18 mins, stirring occasionally, until the rice is cooked through and tender.

  • Step 4

    Season to taste, then remove from the heat. Scatter over the grated cheddar, cover and leave to stand for 5 mins until melted.

  • Step 5

    Spoon onto plates and serve with the Tex-Mex dip selection alongside.
