Arroz Con Grilled Pollo Recipes

ARROZ CON POLLO

Steps:

• Combine the salt, garlic powder, cumin, black pepper and cayenne in a plastic gallon bag. Shake until the mixture is well combined.
• Pat the chicken dry and place in the bag with the spice mixture. Shake the bag, making sure the chicken is well coated.
• Heat the oil in a 12-inch high-sided skillet over high heat until hot but not smoking. Add the chicken and brown on all sides, about 6 minutes each side. Transfer the chicken to a plate, using tongs.
• Add the onions, green peppers, red peppers and 1/2 teaspoon salt to the skillet. Cook the vegetables over moderate heat, stirring, until softened and fragrant, about 7 minutes. Add the rice and garlic and cook until the rice begins to turn gold in color and fragrant, about 1 minute.
• Meanwhile, combine the stock, tomato sauce and remaining teaspoon salt in a medium bowl. Add 1 1/4 cups water and the stock mixture to the skillet and stir to make sure the rice is covered in liquid. Nestle the chicken in the rice, adding any juices from the plate. Bring the rice to a boil. Reduce the heat to medium-low and cover. Cook until the chicken is cooked through, the rice is tender and most of the liquid is absorbed, about 35 minutes. Let the skillet stand covered, about 10 minutes before serving.

ARROZ CON POLLO

Steps:

• Heat the fat in a large heavy pot over medium-high heat. Add the thighs, skin-side down, and cook until browned on both sides and their fat has rendered, 8 to 10 minutes. Transfer to a plate.
• Add the carrots, corn, onion, poblano, serrano, garlic and salt and cook, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables just begin to brown, 5 to 6 minutes. Add the rice and cumin and cook, stirring frequently, until the rice grains are opaque and the vegetables are very tender, about 5 minutes.
• Stir in the tomatoes and 2 1/2 cups water and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat to low, cover the pot and simmer until all the water has been absorbed, about 20 minutes. You can check by
• opening the lid, taking a fork and clearing a spot so you can see the bottom of the pot; if there is any liquid, cover and check in another 5 minutes.
• Remove from the heat and let sit, covered, for 20 minutes to evenly distribute the moisture.
• Serve topped with cilantro and a squeeze of lime.
