Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 ¼ cups water
1 (6 ounce) package uncooked long grain and wild rice mix, with seasoning packet
2 tablespoons salted butter, divided
½ cup diced onions
1 (15 ounce) can black beans, rinsed and drained
1 cup frozen corn
1 (8 ounce) package imitation crabmeat, chopped
½ teaspoon ground white pepper

Steps:

  • Combine water, wild rice mix, contents of seasoning packet, and 1 tablespoon butter in a medium saucepan. Stir well and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low or medium-low, cover, and simmer until water is absorbed, about 25 minutes.
  • While rice is cooking, melt remaining 1 tablespoon butter in a large frying pan over low heat. Add onion and cook until translucent, 8 to 10 minutes. Add beans and corn; cook, stirring often, until heated through, about 5 minutes. Add imitation crab and season with pepper. Saute until imitation crab is warm, 3 to 5 minutes.
  • Mix cooked rice into the crab mixture and serve immediately.
