NEW MEXICO STYLE SPANISH RICE

New Mexico Style Spanish Rice image

My mother taught me this recipe. When she makes this rice, there's never any left! Using red bell pepper adds some sweetness which works well with the chili. It has a wonderful smokey flavor and now that rotel and similar products are on the market, there's no need to send to New Mexico for green chili!

EASY AUTHENTIC SPANISH RICE

Easy Authentic Spanish Rice image

My family loves a variety of ethnic foods, but this is one of their favorites. My niece, who is of Spanish descent, lives with us and has tweaked my old Spanish rice recipe to make it just like her grandma's. My mother-in-law has also added this recipe to her school meals menu (minus the jalapeno), and it is a hit with the students and faculty.

MEXICAN RICE

Mexican Rice image

Blending all the ingredients allows room for great variation in vegetables. Jalapeños or other chilies can be added for heat and character. Water can take the place of chicken stock for vegetarians. Canned tomatoes offer a deep flavor, but it is a good way to use up fresh tomatoes that are on the brink, as well.

Time 40m

Yield 4 cups

Number Of Ingredients 9

Ingredients

1 large clove garlic, roughly chopped
2 cups canned tomatoes (fresh tomatoes can be used)
1/2 cup green bell pepper, roughly chopped
1 medium onion, roughly chopped
1/2 medium jalapeño, seeds and veins removed
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup chicken stock or water
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
1 heaping cup long-grain white rice, rinsed

Steps:

Blend vegetables, salt and stock or water together into a mostly smooth purée (a few small pieces of onion and pepper are fine).
In a large skillet with a tightfitting lid, heat oil. Add rice and toast until it absorbs most of the oil and begins to smell nutty.
Add blended ingredients, stir gently with a wooden spoon to prevent breaking up the rice too much and bring to a light boil. Cover, reduce heat to the lowest setting possible and cook undisturbed for 17 minutes. Let sit for another 10 minutes.
