TOMATO CHICKEN AND RICE

Steps:

• Open the tomatoes and strain the juice into a measuring cup. I usually get one cup of juice from two cans.
• In a 3-qt sauce pan partially melt the butter and add the rice. Mix the rice with the butter and saute 3-4 minutes on medium heat, stirring every 45 seconds or so.
• Add the reserved juice from the tomatoes and enough water to equal a total of 3 1/3 cups of liquid (the amount of water is from an Uncle Ben's package, so please check the cooking directions on your rice and adjust accordingly).
• Using medium-high heat add the oil and onions to your favorite skillet, cooking until translucent.
• Add the garlic, tomatoes, and chicken. Sprinkle on the curry powder and add 1/4-1/2 cup of water to the skillet. Cover and cook on medium-low heat for approx 8-10 minutes, stirring frequently to coat the chicken with the liquid.
• Remove the lid from the chicken and allow sauce to reduce as it simmers.
• When rice has about 3-4 minutes of cook time left add it to the skillet and stir all ingredients together. I like to add a little more curry powder and red pepper flakes at this stage also.
• When the rice is at your desired texture the dish is ready to serve.

RICE WITH TOMATOES AND ONIONS

Steps:

• Put rice into a medium bowl, cover with water, and swish around with your hand until water clouds. Drain and repeat process until water remains clear, 3-4 more times. Drain again, return rice to bowl, and set aside.
• Put tomatoes, onions, and garlic into a food processor and process to a fine puree. Transfer to a medium bowl and set aside.
• Heat oil in a 3 1/2-quart caldero or medium heavy-bottomed pot with a tight-fitting lid over medium-high heat. Add rice and cook, stirring constantly with a wooden spoon, until lightly golden, 5-7 minutes. Add tomato-onion puree and cook, stirring often, until the mixture becomes bright orange, about 3 minutes. Stir in stock and season to taste with salt.
• Bring to boil and cook, undisturbed, until liquid barely covers rice and craters appear on the surface, 8-10 minutes. Reduce heat to low, cover, and steam until rice is tender 18-20 minutes more. Remove pot from heat. Set aside to let cool, undisturbed, for 10 minutes, then fluff with a fork.

RICE AND TOMATOES

Steps:

• In a large saucepan bring 4 quarts water to a boil with the salt. Sprinkle in the rice, stirring until the water returns to a boil, and boil it for 10 minutes. Drain the rice in a colander and rinse it. Set the colander over a large saucepan of boiling water and steam the rice, covered with a kitchen towel and the lid, for 15 minutes, or until it is fluffy and dry. The rice may be made 1 day in advance and kept covered and chilled. Reheat the rice in a steamer over boiling water. In a saucepan cook the onion in the oil over moderately low heat, stirring occasionally, until it is softened, add the tomatoes with the reserved juice, and cook the mixture, stirring occasionally, for 3 minutes. In a bowl combine well the rice, the tomato mixture, and salt and pepper to taste.
