Steps:
- Simmer chicken stock on low to warm up in a small pot on the stovetop.
- In a large pot or dutch oven, sauté the onion, red bell pepper, and jalapeño pepper in the olive oil over medium-high heat until browned and softened (about 5 minutes).
- Add the rice, salt and pepper, and cayenne pepper. Stir to coat.
- Add 1/2 cup of the stock, stir, and allow all of the liquid to be absorbed.
- Once the liquid is absorbed, add 1/2 cup more of the stock. Keep repeating this process until the rice is almost cooked through (You'll need to taste-test this a lot. Tough life, I know).
- When the rice is almost cooked, add the sweet corn kernels and continue as you were with adding the stock gradually.
- When the rice is completely cooked, turn off the heat and stir in the cilantro and cheese until completely melted.
- Serve with extra cilantro and cheese, if desired.
