This recipe has been told to me by my girlfriends MIL from Mexico. I had to measure the ingredients. Never before have they been measured, always a 'handful of this and equal parts of this' until it looked right. I hope you enjoy it. It has become a family favorite in our home. I am always asked to make it! Ingredients:
2 tablespoons olive oil |
1 1/2 cups long-grain rice |
3 cups water |
2 roma (plum) tomatoes, chopped |
1 cup chopped onion |
3/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro |
1 tablespoon tomato bouillon with chicken flavoring (such as knorrĀ®), or more to taste |
Directions:
1. Place a pot over medium-heat heat; add oil. Pour rice into the hot oil, stirring constantly, until rice is golden to dark brown, about 5 minutes. Mix water, tomatoes, onion, cilantro, and bouillon into rice. Turn off heat and cover tightly with a lid until rice has absorbed all the liquid, about 20 minutes. Adjust seasonings as needed. |
