1/2 cup (125 mL) thinly sliced red onion, rinsed
1 Tbsp. (15 mL) chopped fresh cilantro leaves
1 Tbsp. (15 mL) fresh lime juice
1/2 tsp. (2 mL) honey
2 Tbsp. (30 mL) olive oil, divided
4 large portobello mushroom caps, thickly sliced
1 clove garlic, chopped
1 large red bell pepper, chopped
1 3/4 cups (425 mL) fresh or frozen corn
2 1/2 cups (625 mL) water
1 package Knorr Selects™ Rustic Mexican Rice & Beans

QUICK PICKLED ONIONS:
COMBINE your onion, cilantro, lime juice and honey in a small microwave-safe bowl. Microwave at HIGH for 30 seconds. Stir it up and set aside.
MEXICAN PORTOBELLO RICE:
HEAT 1 tablespoon (15 mL) of the olive oil in a large nonstick pan over medium-high heat. Season your portobellos with salt and pepper, if you’d like. Add your portobellos and cook until softened and browned, about 5 minutes. Toss in your garlic and cook 30 seconds more. Remove all from the pan and set aside. Heat the remaining 1 tablespoon (15 mL) olive oil in same pan and cook your bell pepper and corn for about 2 minutes or until crisp-tender.
POUR your water and Knorr Selects™ into the same pan. Bring to a boil, then turn down the heat to medium and continue cooking covered for 10 minutes.
STIR in your portobellos and serve topped with your reserved pickled red onions; now it’s delicious. Dig in!
