Step-by-step recipe

check things off as you go

  1. Émincer l'oignon

    Épluche l'oignon et coupe-le en petits dés. Réserve-le dans un bol.

  2. Couper le poivron

    Lave le poivron, retire les graines et les membranes blanches, puis coupe-le en petits cubes. Ajoute-les à l'oignon.

  3. Faire revenir les légumes

    Dans la poêle antiadhésive, chauffe l'huile à feu moyen. Ajoute l'oignon et le poivron, fais-les revenir 5 min en remuant jusqu'à ce qu'ils ramollissent.

    Tip · Si les légumes collent à la poêle, ajoute un fond d'eau (2-3 cuillères à soupe) et laisse évaporer avant de continuer.

  4. Ajouter les tomates

    Verse les tomates concassées dans la poêle, ajoute le paprika et la pincée de sel. Mélange bien et laisse mijoter à feu doux 5 min.

  5. Ajouter les haricots

    Égoutte les haricots rouges et ajoute-les dans la poêle. Mélange avec les autres ingrédients et laisse cuire encore 5 min à feu doux pour bien chauffer.

  6. Cuire le riz

    Pendant ce temps, dans la casserole, porte 300 ml d'eau à ébullition. Ajoute le riz, couvre et laisse cuire à feu doux 25 min sans remuer. Éteins le feu et laisse reposer 5 min à couvert.

    Tip · Pour un riz plus moelleux, rince-le à l'eau froide avant cuisson et utilise un ratio eau/riz de 2:1.

  7. Servir chaud

    Répartis le riz dans deux assiettes creuses, ajoute le chili sin carne par-dessus. Servez immédiatement.
