Fried Rice and Beans

4 tablespoons Olive Oil
1 large onion, chopped
3-4 cloves garlic, pressed
3 cups rice
6 cups Chicken Broth (low sodium)
2 cups water
1 teaspoon Salt
1 teaspoon Cumin
1 teaspoon Oregano
1 Tablespoon Parsley
4 cans black beans - rinsed and drained

Saute onions and garlic in oil for 3 to 4 minutes.  Add rice to mix and saute for an additional 4 to 5 minutes (the secret to this recipe is the rice frying in the olive oil for several minutes.)  Add rest of ingredients and simmer for 30 minutes +/- or until most water absorbed and rice is cooked.
