Ingredients:

Serving

2 cups medium grain rice (rinsed )
1/4-1/2 lb pork
4 -5 cups hot water, approx
1/2 cup ready made sofrito sauce
1 (15 oz) can of cooked green pigeon peas ( gandules, undrained)
1 tsp salt
1/4 tsp black pepper
20 green olives
1 sazon goya con culantro y achiote
1 (8 oz) can tomato sauce
3 tbsp oil

Directions:

Cut pork into biting sizes and season with adobo, sazon, salt and pepper to taste.
In a medium size caldero (rice pot) add the oil and heat on medium heat.
Add the pork and fry until almost done.
Add tomato sauce, olives, sofrito, sazon, salt and pepper.
Cook over for 4 minutes.
Add all other ingredients, and enough water to cover the rice 1 above the rice line. Stir.
Bring to a boil and cook over med/high heat until most of the water is absorbed.
Once the water has been absorbed, stir gently from bottom to top - once or twice only, cover and turn the heat down to low.
You can cover the rice with aluminum paper or better yet a banana leaf and then put on the cover.
Cook for 30 minutes or until the rice is tender.
