• Adjust the seasoning if you need to.
• Add in the uncooked rice and stir.
• Pour into a casserole dish.
• Bake in oven for 45 -60 minutes, cover for the first 1/2 hour. Check after 1/2 hour and add more water if it seems too dry.

ARROZ: SPANISH RICE

Steps:

• Open can of tomatoes and chicken broth and set aside. These ingredients have to be added quickly, so have them ready.
• Heat lard or shortening in a saucepan on medium-high. Add rice, stirring constantly. When rice is brown, immediately add the onion and garlic and stir so it is evenly mixed. Quickly add the 2 tomatoes (squish them with your hand). Add 1/4 cup of liquid from the can of tomatoes and 3/4 of the entire amount of chicken broth. Bring to a full boil, cover and reduce heat to medium-low. Let simmer until rice is tender and most of broth has evaporated, about 20 to 30 minutes. (The remaining broth can be added if rice is still a little hard) Remove rice from heat and leave covered until ready to serve.

• add diced onion, minced garlic, sauté for 1 minute.
• add seasoned broth, bring to a boil.
• reduce heat to low, cover and simmer for 15 minutes. do not check on the rice before the 15 minutes is up, this will allow steam to escape and may make your rice turn out undercooked.
• most of the water will absorb before the 15 minute time limit but keep covered and continue to steam for the entire 15 minutes. this will make for perfect rice that isnt crunchy.
• after 15 minutes turn heat off, uncover & flip rice over. recover & let sit until everything else is ready. you can let the rice sit covered for up to 25 minutes which will cook out most of the moisture & leave perfect fluffy rice.

MOM'S SPANISH RICE

Steps:

• Being that I like to cook quick (and so do you, probably), I like to dice, chop, and get everything out and measured and put aside before I even begin the cooking, so dice your onions and chop up the bell peppers. You can leave the seeds of the peppers if you'd like but make sure to de-stem them.
• In a pot, heat vegetable oil over medium heat.
• Add the chopped peppers, diced onions, salt, pepper, cumin, chili powder, and cayenne. Stir VERY frequently (about 1-2 minutes) and make sure that the all the spices are mixed into the vegetables.
• Immediately, and in a separate pot, prepare your rice according to the package.
• When rice is cooked, add it to the cooking veggies.
• Add the canned tomatoes and stir frequently on medium heat.
• Cook for 30-45 minutes on medium heat, stirring frequently to avoid burning the rice and so that the rice can absorb the tomato, oil, cumin, chili powder, cayenne, salt, and pepper.
• If you want a variation, add small pieces of cooked hamburger meat (prepared in a separate skillet) to the mix. You can add salt, pepper, cumin, chili powder, and cayenne to that, as well, before finally adding it to the mix. If you are a brontosaurus and don't eat meat like your T-Rex friends, skip this step.
• You will know the rice has absorbed everything and that everything is cooked when the rice is golden. (Note: if you believe the rice to taste too salty, gradually add just pinches of sugar until the flavor balances back out; sugar, kids, is a great equalizer -- use it wisely.).
• Serve hot and enjoy!
