SPANISH RICE PRONTO



Spanish Rice Pronto image

My Mom used to make this, and I found her recipe - it's from a 1968 Minute Rice calendar as September's feature. I've made a few changes though - using a little olive oil instead of 1/4 cup of fat like the original recipe, and adding 1 can of tomatoes and 1 small can of tomato sauce, sometimes I use black olives instead of green ones or both. This is a quick and hearty dinner, excellent with a salad.

THE BEST AUTHENTIC SPANISH RICE



The Best Authentic Spanish Rice image

If you like the kind of spanish rice served in Mexican restaurants, you will LOVE this recipe. Browning the rice gives it that fluffy and nutty taste that makes it so good. The flavor is not meant to be overpowering, so it goes very good with spicy entrees. This recipe was given to me by a friend who makes the best authentic Mexican dishes ever. Enjoy!

2 tablespoons tomato & chicken bouillon (Knorr brand, "Caldo de Tomato con Sabor de Pollo", in Mexican food aisle)
1/8 teaspoon garlic salt (to taste)
4 cups water
vegetable oil (no olive oil)

Steps:

  • Add onion and green pepper, cook until they become soft, add more oil if needed.
  • Stir in tomato, cook for 2-3 minute.
  • Tilt pot, remove any excess oil w/ spoon.
  • Sprinkle bouillon and garlic salt over rice (DO NOT STIR).
  • Pour water over rice (DO NOT STIR), then cover.

  • Pick out large pieces of veggies w/ a fork and discard, (this step may be omitted if you chopped your veggies, I have picky eaters).
  • *This rice actually tastes better when cooled, and then heated in the microwave, as any remaining liquid is evaporated.
