Add the chili powder, cumin, coriander, red pepper flakes, and tomato
juice, stirring to mix. Continue to cook while preparing the rice.

Put the rice and chicken stock in a medium saucepan. Bring to a boil
over medium-high heat. Cover, reduce the heat to low, and simmer for
45 minutes, or until tender.

In the meantime, combine all the salsa ingredients in a small serving
bowl and set it aside for the flavors to meld.

When the rice is done, stir it into the bean mixture. Ladle into
bowls and serve with the salsa on the side.
