Categories     Entree     Dinner     Side Dish

Time 30m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 10

4 slices bacon
1 to 4 teaspoons butter
1/2 cup onion (minced)
1 cup long-grain white rice
1 14.5-ounce can diced tomatoes (with juice)
2 cups water
1 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper
1/4 teaspoon chili powder
1 cup cheddar or Monterey jack cheese (shredded)

Steps:

  • Gather the ingredients.
  • In a large skillet, fry bacon until cooked, but not crisp, over medium heat. Remove from skillet, drain on paper towels, and dice and set aside.
  • Pour the bacon fat into a measuring cup; if there is less than 1/4 cup add enough butter to make 1/4 cup of fat. (Add a teaspoon of butter at a time, stirring-the hot bacon fat will melt the butter.)
  • Pour the melted fat back into the skillet, and add the onion and rice. Sauté over medium heat, stirring constantly, until rice is lightly browned and onion is tender.
  • Remove from heat; stir in diced bacon, tomatoes with juice, water, salt, pepper, and chili powder. Return to the heat, cover, and simmer until rice is tender and liquid is almost all absorbed-about 20 minutes.
  • Add cheese, lower the heat and stir until cheese is melted.
  • Serve hot and enjoy!

SPANISH RICE WITH GROUND BEEF



Spanish Rice with Ground Beef image

Growing up, my mom made a version of Spanish rice with ground beef that was hearty enough that it stood on its own as a main dish. During a visit a few years ago, after missing her cooking desperately, I watched her prepare it and jotted down the recipe. (Don't worry, I checked with my mom and she's totally on board with sharing with you!) Serve on a bed of fresh spinach with a side of refried beans. Garnish with fresh diced tomatoes, green onions, cheese, avocado slices, and crushed chile flakes.

fresh ground black pepper

Steps:

  • In a large pot of salted water cook the green beans about 5-6 minutes, only until just tender but still with some "bite".
