Directions:
- Heat oil in a large, heavy pot over medium heat. Add bacon and cook until lightly browned, about 4 minutes.
- Pour off all but 2 tablespoons fat.
- Add onion, bell pepper, garlic, basil, thyme, salt and pepper, and cook until the onion is golden brown, about 5 minutes.
- Stir in tomato paste and sugar and cook for 2 minutes more.
- Add water and bring to a boil.
- Stir in rice and lime juice and return to a boil. Reduce heat to low, cover pot, and cook 15 minutes.
- If the rice is too dry, add 2-3 tablespoons water. If too wet, leave cover ajar for remaining cooking time.
- Stir in peas. Cook until rice is tender, about 3 minutes more.
- Remove pot from heat and let stand for 5 minutes.
- Fluff with fork and correct seasoning if needed.
