Cooking Steps
Before starting, preheat the oven to 450°F. Wash and dry all produce. Heat a medium pot over medium heat. When hot, add crushed tomatoes, broth concentrate, rice, Mexican Seasoning, 2 tbsp oil and 1 1/4 cup water (dbl both for 4 ppl). Season with salt, pepper and 1 tsp sugar (dbl for 4 ppl), then stir to combine. Bring to a simmer, then remove from heat.
While broth comes to a simmer, drain, then rinse black beans. Core, then cut peppers into 1/4-inch pieces. Halve tomatoes. Zest, then juice lime. Roughly chop cilantro.
Add peppers and black beans to an 8x8-inch baking dish (9x13-inch for 4 ppl). Season with salt and pepper, then stir to combine.
Add broth to baking dish, then stir to combine. Bake in the middle of the oven, stirring halfway through, until rice is tender and liquid is absorbed, 25-28 min.
