1/2 tsp ground cumin
1 cup raw basmati rice
1 can black beans - (15 oz), rinsed well
1/8 tsp dried red pepper flakes - (to 1/4), or to taste
1/4 tsp kosher salt, (optional)

Dressing Ingredient:
Juice 1 lime

Place the fish and shrimp into a bowl. Sprinkle with orange juice, garlic and cumin. Marinate for at least 30 minutes. Prepare the rice according to package directions. Combine with the rinsed black beans, red pepper flakes, and salt (if using). In a small cup, combine all ingredients for the dressing. Toss with the rice mixture. Allow flavors to meld as you continue the recipe. Coat a nonstick skillet with cooking spray and heat the pan until very hot. Quickly sauté the red pepper and scallions for 2 minutes until they just begin to soften. Add to the rice and beans. Re-coat the pan and quickly cook the seafood until browned and cooked through. Set aside.
