Cooking Steps
- Using a strainer, drain and rinse black beans.
- Add vegetable stock powder, 1 1/2 cups (3 cups) water and 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) butter to a medium pot. Cover and bring to a boil over high heat.
- Once boiling, add rice and half the black beans, then reduce heat to low. Cover and cook until rice is tender and liquid is absorbed, 14-16 min.
- Remove from heat. Set aside, still covered.
- Meanwhile, husk corn, then halve crosswise.
- Add corn to the grill. Close lid and grill, turning occasionally, until tender and grill marks form, 8-10 min.
- Transfer corn to a plate.
- Zest, then juice half the lime. Cut remaining lime into wedges.
- Halve tomatoes.
- Roughly chop cilantro.
- Peel, pit, then cut avocado into 1/4 -inch pieces.
- Add remaining black beans to a large bowl. Using a fork, lightly mash about half of the beans until they burst slightly.
- Place cobs cut-side down on a cutting board. Moving the knife along the cobs in a downward motion, shave corn kernels off.
- Add corn, avocados, tomatoes, half the cilantro, 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) lime juice, 1/4 tsp (1/2 tsp) sugar and 1/2 tbsp oil (1 tbsp) to the bowl with black beans. Season with salt and pepper, to taste, then stir to combine.
- Using a strainer, drain and rinse shrimp, then pat dry with paper towels.
- Add shrimp, Mexican Seasoning, half the chipotle sauce and 1/2 tbsp (1 tbsp) oil to a medium bowl. Season with salt and pepper, then toss to coat.
- Place shrimp on the grill. Close lid and grill, flipping shrimp once, until cooked through, 2-3 min per side.**
- Fluff rice with a fork, then stir in lime zest and remaining cilantro.
- Divide rice and salad between plates. Sprinkle feta over salad.
- Top rice with shrimp. Drizzle remaining chipotle sauce over shrimp.
- Squeeze a lime wedge over top, if desired.
