- Heat oil in a pan on medium-high heat, and fry onion until translucent. Add garlic and cook for a few minutes, stirring regularly.
- Into this pan add your beans, cooking while stirring until heated through and starting to crispin. Reduce heat slightly, then add the diced capsicum and cook until slightly soft.
- Sprinkle taco seasoning over your bean mixture, stirring until well combined. To this add your corn kernels, and your rice. Stir until mixture is well coated in taco seasoning. Drizzle BBQ sauce over the top.
