This was pretty good. I had to substitute roasted red peppers for the pimientos as someone else had suggested since I didn't have any & it turned out good! I couldn't get my little ones to eat it, but my older two ate it with little complaint. I will keep this one to use on a night when there are no kids to feed. Thanks for posting!

Delicious. I forgot to put in the 2nd can of black beans, so my final dish was a little light on the beans, but it was good all the same. Used a rice cooker for the rice, so I skipped the chicken broth. Perfect combination of flavors, will definitely make again.

When a Maine-iac cooks Cuban food, what do you get? A fantast-iac dish! You are right, Balsamic vinegar works magic. I substituted leftover cooked ham and would recommend it instead of chicken. It's a keeper for sure.

What a wonderful, quick, easy, filling, tasty rainy Monday night dinner! I halved the recipe and used leftover cooked brown rice. We did only use 1 huge chicken breast for the half recipe. I also subbed the pepper flakes with Zhoug #57689 (wonderful stuff!) and the pimentos for roasted red, orange and yellow peppers. This is a lovely dish with great flavor and wonderful colors- the black beans, white chicken and rice, red pimentos! I was wondering if the balsamic would make this taste weird or somehow Mediterranean, but it definitely does not- it just adds a wonderful rich flavor. So simple and so good! I was thinking this might be nice with tofu instead of the chicken, too. Thanks for a great we're-starving-and-tired dinner!
