Ingredients:

Serving

5 cups short-grain rice
5 1/2 cups water
4 tbsp vegetable oil or 4 tbsp bacon grease
1 (1/3 oz) package achiote powder , i use mama cita's brand, can be found at any asian market
2 (1 1/2 oz) packages sazon goya with coriander and annatto
1 (1 1/2 oz) package goya ham seasoning
1/4-1/2 cup onion, chopped
1 1/2 tsp garlic powder
1 tsp salt , may need more according to taste
1/2 tsp black pepper
1/4 tsp accent seasoning

Directions:

In a bowl, wash the rice until the water runs clear. Transfer to a rice cooker pot that's at least a 10 cup cooker. In a separate bowl; combine the rest of ingredients. Making sure to combine the seasonings until dissolved and the achiote powder is well mixed. Taste a bit and adjust the salt and seasonings according to your taste preference.
Pour over the rice in the cooker and stir well to combine. Press button to cook; halfway through cooking time, stir to combine the ingredients thoroughly. Let cooking time finish. Let sit a few minutes before enjoying.
This can also be cooked on the stovetop. Bring the rice to a full boil, stir, cover with a lid and lower heat to about med-low. Continue cooking for about 20-30 minutes. Make sure to keep an eye on it as not to burn. That's why I prefer the rice cooker.
Enjoy with chamorro barbeque and finadene.
