VICKI'S SPANISH RICE



Vicki's Spanish Rice image

I wanted to create an easy spanish rice with ingredients I had on hand and this does not dissapoint. The Sazon is optional but very tasty...I've used both the tomato and the azafron flavor and both are good. I always use Uncle Bens converted rice for a fool proof dish every time! Covering the rice with a towel is an old mid-east trick that absorbs any excess water...it really works!

1 cup converted rice (preferably Uncle Bens)

1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1 cup chopped tomato
1/2 cup chopped green pepper
1/4 cup chopped onion
1/4 cup chopped celery
1/4 cup frozen peas
1/4 cup chicken broth
water
1/4 teaspoon chili powder
1/4 teaspoon cumin
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
1/8 teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon butter
olive oil

  • 1. Bring 2 1/4 cups water, Sazon, garlic, and chicken base to a boil.
  • 2. Meantime, melt butter or oil and saute veggies with cumin, chili,salt,pepper and 1/4 cup chicken broth until tender crisp -- about 5 minutes or so.
  • 3. Add veggies, rice, and peas to boiling water mixture and simmer on very low for 20-25 minutes until liquid is absorbed. No peeking! Remove lid and cover pot with a clean dish towel and then put lid back on until ready to serve. Enjoy!
  • 4. NOTE* on occasion, I've topped this rice with more chopped tomato and green onion - crumbled bacon is also good.
