Time 35m

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 1/2 cups long grain white rice (*)
1/4 cup oil ((vegetable or canola oil))
1 teaspoon garlic (, minced)
1/4 medium onion (, finely diced)
1/4 cup tomato sauce (, or 2 pureed tomatoes*)
2 teaspoons tomato bouillon (granulated, or cubes*)
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 carrot (, diced)
1/2 cup peas ((frozen or fresh))
3 cups water
1-3 whole serrano peppers (, optional)

Steps:

  • Rinse the rice in a fine mesh strainer until the water runs clear. Set aside.
  • In a large saucepan over medium-high heat, add the oil. Once hot, add the rice and stir to combine. Cook over medium heat, stirring frequently, until the rice is lightly golden brown all over (about 10 minutes).
  • Add tomato sauce, garlic, and diced onion to the pan. Stir. Add tomato bullion, salt, carrots, peas, and water (and serrano peppers, if using. They add a little flavor, but not spice.).
  • Bring to a boil, then cover, reduce heat to low and cook for about 20 minutes or until the water is completely absorbed. Remove from heat and allow to rest for 5 minutes before fluffing with a fork.

AMAZING MEXICAN RICE



Amazing Mexican Rice image

I modified a recipe Mexican-style rice recipe I found on here and it turned out great. My family really loves it and hopefully you will too. The tomatoes I use are the Western Family brand. You could substitute regular diced tomatoes, but it won't have the same great flavor. (Those chipotle spices really make a difference!) You could also substitute 1 cup frozen corn for 1 can of corn.

  • First, heat 3 tablespoons of oil in a deep skillet set over medium-high heat. Add the rice and stir constantly until the rice begins to turn golden brown. The toastier your rice, the tastier it will be (information gleaned from my friend, via her grandma of course).
  • Next, add the chicken stock. The mixture will bubble up, and should be followed immediately by the tomato paste or tomato sauce, onion powder, garlic powder, cumin, chili powder, black pepper, and salt.
  • Bring to a boil, stirring the tomato paste to dissolve it if using, and cover with a tight-fitting lid. Immediately turn the heat down to low and set a timer for 20 minutes.
  • During or when the rice is done cooking, you may want to check moisture levels. If you smell a hint of a burnt scent, your heat is too high! In this scenario, if the rice is cooked, remove from the heat. If it’s not cooked, lower the heat, and add water ½ cup at a time to continue the cooking process. If it’s too wet, leave the lid slightly ajar or off the pan entirely.
