I know I promised a couple of weeks ago to post some cuban dishes but I only found my Cuban Black Beans and Rice recipe on my home computer.

I’m glad you reminded me, I will have to ask my wife to look in my cooking file at home when I call her tonight. I have a fruit juice-based Chicken and Rice recipe that is to die for (Well, I like it...LOL!). You mix lemon, orange and lime and grapefruit juice to approximate the taste of some oranges that grow in Cuba (sour orange) Then, mix in a boat load of garlic and let the marinade steep for a couple of hours

It’s great! I’ll have to find it.

Did you post the recipe for the Cuban style Black Beans and Rice? I must have missed it if you did. I am trying to get my husband to eat black beans. So far I have only been able to get him to try them in Chili. He likes most Latin American cuisine, so I am hoping to find a really good recipe for Cuban style Black Beans and Rice, or even just Cuban Style Black Beans that he will like. He will eat black eyed peas, red beans, lima beans and just about any other bean, but getting him to try black beans is almost as hard as getting him to eat spinach.

The chicken and rice dish sounds delicious. I will be anxiously watching for it.
