Ingredients

 Brown rice1 1/3 Cup (16 tbs), uncooked
 2 3/4 cups plus 2 tablespoons water
 Yellow onion1 Medium, chopped
 Red kidney beans1 Can (10oz), drained, rinsed
 1 1/4 teaspoons chicken bouillon granules
 Ground black pepper1/4 Teaspoon
 Ground allspice1/4 Teaspoon
 Coconut extract1/2 Teaspoon

Directions

1. Place the rice in a strainer, and rinse under cold running water. (Rinsing makes the rice fluffier.)
2. Place all of the ingredients, including the rice, in a 2 1/2-quart pot, and bring to a boil over high heat. Reduce the heat to low, stir the rice, and cover.
3. Allow the rice to simmer, covered, for about 50 minutes, or until the rice is cooked and the liquid has been absorbed. Do not stir the rice while it is cooking, as this can result in sticky rice.
4. Remove the rice from the heat, and let sit, covered, for 5 minutes.
