This a typical breakfast from Costa Rica. Serve it with a sunny side up egg, fried sweet plantains, sour cream, cheese, saussage and tortillas.

Or anything you want!! It's quick and comforting, I hope you enjoy it.

Steps

20 mins

1

Set stove to a medium heat mark. In a thick bottom frying pan with vegetable oil, toss the chopped onions and peppers until soft.
2

Add minced garlic, and stir in the rice. Adjust stove temperature to high. Mix rice until it's covered with the previous vegetable mix. Cook until it's glossy and crispy.
3

Add the beans and mix, add the Lizano Sauce (you can get it from any supermarket) the salt and pepper, a pinch of dried oregano and add a little of the bean broth. Add to taste.
4

The less juice you put gives you a more crispy and fluffy Gallo Pinto. The more you add gives you a moist, soft and gooey consistency. It's all about your own personal choice!
5

Keep cooking and mixing until you reach the consistency you like. Mix in the cilantro. Mix and serve hot with some sides and drink coffee with it. A hearty breakfast and a good way to use up leftover rice. You can also substitute for canned beans.
