Delicious substitute for ground beef burgers. Full of protein! Serve on sourdough bread with sharp cheddar, guacamole, and salsa. Ingredients:
1 cup white rice |
2 cups water |
1 (10 ounce) package frozen corn niblets |
1 tablespoon olive oil |
1 (15 ounce) can black beans, drained and rinsed |
1 (15 ounce) can chickpeas, drained and rinsed |
1 clove garlic, minced, or more to taste |
1/3 cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese |
1/3 cup all-purpose flour |
1 pinch red pepper flakes, or to taste |
1/4 cup all-purpose flour, or more if needed |
1/2 teaspoon cajun seasoning, or to more taste |
1 pinch red pepper flakes, or more to taste |
1 tablespoon olive oil |
Directions:
1. Bring rice and water to a boil in a saucepan. Reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer until rice is tender, and the liquid has been absorbed, 20 to 25 minutes. Stir corn into hot rice.
2. Heat 1 tablespoon oil in a skillet over medium heat; cook and stir black beans, chickpeas, and garlic until warmed, 3 to 5 minutes.
3. Combine rice mixture and bean mixture in a large bowl. Stir Cheddar cheese, 1/3 cup flour, and a pinch of red pepper flakes into rice-bean mixture into a thick mixture; form into patties.
4. Mix about 1/4 cup flour, Cajun seasoning, and a pinch of red pepper flakes in a small bowl. Coat each patty in flour mixture.
5. Heat 1 tablespoon oil in a skillet over medium heat; pan-fry patties until golden brown, about 5 minutes per side.
