I found this recipe in my Betty Crocker's International cookbook and thought it sounded pretty good. It is a chicken dish with rice, filled with spices, stewed tomatoes, capers, olives, ham, garlic, peas and more. I can't wait to try it myself. It could be a one dish meal or you could serve it with a salad. Hope you enjoy!

Time 1h10m

Yield 12

Number Of Ingredients 21

5 ½ cups chicken stock, divided
1 lime, juiced
1 medium green bell pepper, chopped
1 mini sweet pepper, chopped
1 jalapeno, chopped
3 cloves garlic, minced
2 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro
2 teaspoons dried oregano
3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
10 annatto seeds, or more to taste
3 pounds boneless, skinless chicken breasts, chopped
2 bay leaves
2 cups medium-grain rice
1 cup diced tomato
1 cup frozen green peas
1 onion, chopped
½ cup pitted green olives
¼ cup capers
2 tablespoons adobo seasoning
¼ teaspoon salt
¼ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Blend 1 cup chicken stock with lime juice, bell pepper, sweet pepper, jalapeno, garlic, cilantro, and oregano to make the sofrito.
  • Combine olive oil and annatto seeds in a large skillet over medium heat. Heat until seeds start to open up and oil turns a yellow-orange color, 3 to 4 minutes. Add enough chicken to cover the pan in a single layer without overcrowding. Cook, turning halfway, until juices run clear, 7 to 10 minutes.
  • Combine remaining chicken stock, 1/2 of the sofrito, and bay leaves in a large pot. Bring to a boil. Stir in rice, tomato, green peas, onion, green olives, capers, adobo seasoning, salt, and pepper.
  • Add the cooked chicken to the broth. Saute remaining chicken in the annatto oil before adding to the pot. Reduce heat to low and simmer until rice is tender, about 20 minutes more.
